#r12giftED
Helping educators meet the unique needs of gifted learners.
Volume 1 Issue 4
Welcome to #r12giftED
Our belief is that ALL students, including gifted, deserve meaningful learning experiences that will empower them to continually seek to innovate for themselves and the world around them.
This digital newsletter will be sent once per month and will contain relevant resources, activities, and information that can be implemented immediately with your gifted and talented students. Additionally, we will provide information and tools to ensure that your campus/district meets state compliance standards. If you ever miss an issue they are all archived at the bottom of the page.
We welcome feedback on the resources and will gladly look for information that you need to serve the students!
