Ever Had a Kid Like Me?

Watch our video series on local twice-exceptional success stories!

REEL ensures that twice-exceptional (2e) students thrive in school and at home.

 

We raise the awareness and understanding of Silicon Valley parents and educators through resources, events, tools, workshops, and services.

 

Do you know a bright child who struggles to show it in an academic setting? Read our checklist to see if they might be 2e:

Twice-exceptional learners have both high ability and potential as well as complex challenges such as autism, dyslexia, and ADHD, among others.

 

They have deep passions and many strengths, but are sometimes seen as lazy or obstinate.

 

Learn more about the unique asynchronous development of the 2e learner:
