At The Genius School, we believe genius isn’t something you’re born with — it’s something you grow. This quarter, our students explored the science of goal setting through hands-on neuroscience, mind mapping, and SMART goal practice. From understanding how neurons communicate to leading a portion of our Genius Conferences, our students discovered how effort, reflection, and persistence reshape the brain.

In November, our Genius of the Month trait is patience — the quiet strength that helps students persevere, support one another, and grow with confidence. This month, we’re celebrating the amazing ways our geniuses show patience every day: waiting calmly for their turn, tackling challenges with a steady mindset, and encouraging their classmates along the way. At The Genius School, patience isn’t just a skill — it’s a mindset that helps every child shine.

This Giving Tuesday, we’re inviting our community to help us raise $25,000 to strengthen the programs that make The Genius School so unique — small classes, faith-centered teaching, neuroscience-based learning, and individualized support for every scholar. When you give, you’re not just supporting a school. You’re investing in children who are becoming confident, resilient, purpose-driven leaders.

October’s Geniuses of the Month at The Genius School beautifully embodied our Fruit of the Spirit focus — Peace. Through calm words, patient hearts, and gentle leadership, these students showed what it means to be true peacemakers. Whether resolving conflicts, encouraging teamwork, or simply spreading calm through their presence, they help create classrooms where everyone feels safe, supported, and loved. Their actions remind us that peace is not the absence of chaos, but the presence of order — and that with peaceful hearts, our Genius community continues to grow stronger together.
