Keller ISD Gifted Gazette
1st Update of 2016!
Kindergarten GT Testing
We wanted to touch base and let you know what's happening in our GT world. We will not be holding class from January 11th to February 5th. We will be out testing our Kindergarten students and attending multiple professional development conferences during that time. GT classes will resume across the district on February 8th.
We have stimulating resources for the kiddos to be working on in, and out of the classroom during this time. We will also be sharing multiple extension resources with the classroom teachers.
Keller ISD Film Festival is open and ready for students to work on and submit before February 29th! It is a perfect project for our GT kiddos to work on individually, with a group, or with family! The link is below.
