Super
Saturday Program - Pre-K to 8
The Super
Saturday Program is presented by PAGE (Parent Association
for Gifted Education, Inc.), a non-profit 501(c)(3) program
that offers courses to gifted preschool through eighth
grade students who have shown evidence of outstanding
achievement and/or potential, and who could benefit from an
accelerated enrichment program. Courses provide wonderful
opportunities for the children to explore new areas of
interest or expand their horizons in established
areas. Children thrive on the exciting and unique
educational experiences Super Saturday has to offer. It not
only provides a wonderful educational opportunity, but it
also allows children to interact with their gifted peers
and make new friends.
The Super Saturday Program's 2010 Fall brochure is now
available online at http://www.supersaturday.org.
Registration forms and professional recommendation forms
are also available online. Registration will be open until

served basis. Registrations received after September 18th
are assessed a $25 late fee. We do have limited financial
aid and grant scholarships available for
