QUESTION, EXPLORE AND EXAMINE OUR GIFTED PROGRAM Because that's what Gibson's Middle School students do everyday! The Middle School years are a time when students develop a concrete vision of their abilities. They develop attitudes toward learning and knowledge. And, they form ideas about how the world-at-large feels about education and intellectual ability. At Gibson School, Middle School students delve deeply into their subjects. Creativity, questioning, ex- ploring, reexamining - all allow students to study a question from many angles, revealing the com- plexity of an issue. Students use research, hands-on learning, or group presentations - whatever technique is appropriate - to fully explore a subject. Gibson students realize that learning requires organization and thought. They discover that there is a real connection between subject areas. And they know that what they learn through a Gibson Edu- cation can be applied outside of school as well as in the classroom. At Gibson School, everyone encourages gifted students to pursue intellectual gifts. No one is pressured to hold back, to hide their academic Boys and girls encourage each other to succeed. And, each student is respected for his or her special abilities. Gibson students venture out in their learning, since they know they will have the support of classmates and teachers. Gibson's supportive atmosphere provides a strong academic home for Middle School students dur- ing an awkward time in their lives. And, Gibson's small size lets teachers work with students in a way no larger setting can allow. Gifted students at Gibson set high personal standards - and they have the freedom to reach for their goals. This prepares them for the rigors of high school and beyond. Gibson School offers pr arms for gifted students aged four through 14. For more information on Gib- son School, please call (313) 537-8688.

GORMAN'S is one of two furni- ture retailers in the country se- lected by the Home Furnishings Council and Modern Bride mag- azine to participate in a pilot bridal registry program. The oth- er retailer is Gabberts in Min- neapolis. Gorman's registry includes fur- nishings and accessories at the Steve Stein company's four locations in Dear- born, Grand Rapids, Southfield and Troy. The new Gorman's store in Novi will join the list when it opens in September. "Many of today's brides and grooms are a little older," said Gorman's President Bernie Moray. "They often are merging two households which have plen- ty of basics but lack the kind of furniture people want to buy un- til they set up a permanent home. "And younger couples are be- coming more and more realistic about what they might need in the future." A JUDGE, two attorneys and a records clerk will familiarize new attorneys with the functions and fundamentals of practicing in Oakland County district, circuit and probate courts in a Sept. 13 seminar. The "Introduc- tion to Practice in Oakland Coun- ty Courts" seminar will be held from 1:30-5 p.m. in Judge Thomas Brookover's courtroom at the 48th District Court in Bloomfield Hills.
