Welcome to GHF, the Gifted Homeschoolers Forum;
equipping families to best educate their gifted and twice-exceptional kids.
Who we are:
GHF is an amazing bunch of gifted learning professionals, experts, scholars, and seasoned parents who’ve made it our mission to provide community, events, co-op classes, resources and outreach, all in the name of empowering families to make strategic, proactive and intentional choices for their education, while offering accessibility, affordability and allyship.
GHF Board Director of Community Outreach & DEI, Dr. Erinn Fears Floyd puts it best: “Woven into the fabric of GHF is an equitable and inclusive environment that ensures all homeschooled gifted students, families, and educators have equal access to information, growth, engagement, and opportunities. By building an inclusive and collaborative learning environment, our goal is to support our global community of diverse people, strengths, talent, needs, and ideas.”
Who YOU are:
You are a parent who went from thinking that your kid’s gifted diagnosis meant A’s without breathing hard to wondering how they’re going to make it to the end of the semester. You’re a parent who either knows or needs to hear that it’s not elitist or asking for the moon to strive for an education that fulfills your kid’s scope of curiosity. You are brave, and, if you are new to this, you are probably overwhelmed by decisions that all feel like they need to be made right now, or by choices that sound too lofty, costly, or time-intensive for your family. You could use some friends who actually have the knowledge and experience behind the good intentions. Pals who run the gamut from classical homeschooling (and all the flavors therein!), to hybrid and online, to brick-and-mortar gifted programs, and even those who make it work with public school. There is no one-size-fits-all, and there are choices to be made. You don’t have to make them alone.
What we offer:
Our programming - live events, workshops, Q&As and conferences, recorded formats, periodicals, books, groups, chats, and virtual co-op - is geared toward empowering every family, from complete newbie to nearly-empty-nester, with awareness of and ability to use the best tools for their situation and goals. We’re talking “to homeschool or not, and is there an in-between?” “How do we even DO this?” “How do I choose curriculum?” “What about college?” Twice-exceptional (2e). Asynchrony. Overexcitability. Intensity. If you’re experiencing it, we’ve probably got it covered in our extensive recording library, but nobody is going to get grumbly about walking through it with you (again) in the chat (even if you’re the 50th person to ask whether it’s a concern that your 11yo physicist can’t tie his shoes).

“Thank you all for such a supportive, casual, professional, warm, informative group; but mostly, for caring so much. When we touch one, we touch thousands-- it ripples and expands, and I am so grateful to be in community with folks who care to put time, energy and heart into this healing work.”
