HONORING OUR PAST CELEBRATING OUR PRESENT LOOKING TO THE FUTURE

Over the past 24 years, the Institute for Educational Advancement has provided life-changing programs, enrichment classes, scholarships and other services for more than 11,000 gifted young people from a wide variety of socioeconomic and ethnic backgrounds. Our IEA community has grown dramatically since 1998 to serve children and families in our home base of Los Angeles and all across the United States.

Today we look forward to the future as we continue to embrace our unique whole child philosophy and respond innovatively and compassionately to serve the needs of these remarkable young people. IEA is one of the nation’s leading organizations dedicated to the intellectual, social, emotional, spiritual, and physical needs of gifted youth.

There are thousands of gifted children who have little or no access to any form of gifted education or services. Your support of IEA will help ensure that gifted children of today and tomorrow, regardless of background, have access to the high-quality educational programs and services they need to flourish and reach for their full intellectual and personal potential.

A Message to our community

We are deeply heartbroken by the devastating fires impacting so many friends, families, and staff in Southern California. The health and safety of our community remain our top priority.

While our offices are outside of the evacuation zone, staff will be working remotely through Wednesday, January 15 as we continue to monitor the situation. We are staying in touch with staff and families affected by these fires.

We sincerely appreciate your support during this challenging time. If you need to reach us, please email us at IEAGifted@educationaladvancement.org.

Thank you for your understanding and care. We’ll provide additional updates soon.
