Western Colorado Association for Gifted and Talented

What is Gifted Education?

Over 1800 students in School District 51 have been identified by the

school district as Gifted & Talented. More gifted children are in our

community in private schools and home school. Educating gifted children

is important not only to the students themselves, but to our community

and our country. Read on to find out why gifted education really matters.

WCAGT is a support, enrichment and advocacy group for gifted children

in the Grand Valley area. It also functions as an information and support

organization for parents of high-ability and high-potential children.

WCAGT maintains a lending library of publications on the subject of

parenting and educating gifted children.

There is a wonderful article in the latest SENG newsletter about teaching

gifted students to manage stress. You can access it here:  Stress Management
