Crystal Lake Friends of Gifted Education (CLFOGE) is a not-for-profit, volunteer staffed group of parents and educators dedicated to supporting gifted education throughout District 47. Our mission is to provide support to the students, parents and teachers involved with the EC program.

Consider joining our organization. You can purchase an annual membership for a modest $5, or become a lifetime member for only $20. As a CLFOGE member, you will have access to the pre-sale dates of our very popular annual used book sale, Book Blast held the last weekend of January. Most importantly, however, you will be helping to support the Gifted Education program for your child.

Spring Poem #1

By Samantha

The flowers are starting to sprout,

You can see new life all about!

Yes, it's Spring,

And the birds start to sing.

It's the beautiful season you can't live without.

Spring Poem #2

By Samantha

The air is comfortably warm.

There's a bright and shining sun.

The flowers are starting to form,

And songs of birds have just begun.

There are emerald leaves on the trees-

Life's emerging everywhere.

Yes, ‘tis the breath-taking season of Spring.

Take time to stop, listen, and stare.
