  Beyond Mis-Education

About
DONNA
​SHANNON

I've been a public school classroom volunteer, education advocate, homeschool teacher, and, with my Bachelor of Science degree in Biological Sciences, a public school substitute teacher. I am a public speaker about education issues that negatively impact highly to profoundly gifted children in general and Black boys in particular.

I've seen the darker side of how a gifted child and a Black boy can be treated by public schools. My son survived to be a positive, productive adult, but many children don't because the adults in their lives, unaware of what's really going on in their child's classes, take no steps to minimize the damage.

​After my son no longer needed me to advocate for him, I decided to keep advocating for the sake of other children going through similar mistreatment in public schools.
