A Vision for Excellent Gifted Education
Tuesday April 1, 2025 9:15am - 10:30am CDT
How big is the vision for gifted education at your school? Would you describe it as a little tweak here, and a touch of differentiation over there? A celebration or two, a spring product fair, and an emotional support club. Better yet, perhaps your vision is grandiose, life changing, transformational. What does that even look like? Whether you are newer to the field or have been rethinking your approach to giftedness and talent development for more than a decade, the common goal is exceptional performance and student flourishing. Join with your peers in this time of challenging assumptions about gifted education and imagining programs that are just a little audacious in scope and outcomes.
