@Trish_Crain Gifted education in Alabama is put on the back burner when it comes to funding from legislators. Companies complain when they can’t seem to find people with leadership and skills at management levels. What’s wrong with this picture? Contact your Alabama legislators!

Birmingham City Schools offer consultative services to our gifted students along with the AP/IB classes. I agree more needs to be done in secondary schools for our gifted students. Consultative services in organization, study skills, and social emotional needs.

@gajenx @Trish_Crain We also research deep space, perform archaeological digs, create house plans and build it, build Lego Spike Essential robotics kits and code them to move, look at timelines and how everyday items have changed over the last 100 years, see how tech can be good, bad, and ugly, etc.

@Trish_Crain Well our best and brightest students are leaving the state in droves due to little support. Ask Mercedes Benz executives who had to go back to Germany b/c they couldn’t find people w/ qualifications needed! Hence support gifted education by funding it-zero raise in budget this yr

@Pixieduster7 @Trish_Crain Having quality gifted and talented classes for bright learners isn’t the same as peer tutoring. Only one person is learning something new in your son’s class. Try Khan Academy, code.org, or go to NAGC.org for more parenting info and bookstore! 😊

@sniarb @Trish_Crain Amen, so glad you posted this an what I have said so many times. My 9 yr old grandson in 4th grade is doing 6th grade work an is getting so bored he doesn't want to keep going to school. His teacher got him involved in teaching other kids in class which helped but she is leaving.

Congratulations to our very own Dalraida Elementary School 4th grade QUEST student Natalie Guidos Martinez for being chosen as one of the top winners in the 2023 State Farm Color The Concept Contest! She chose the concept “Budget” for her illustration. We are so proud of her!😄

Kudos to our @alabamagifted colleagues for their advocacy. Wish we could have recorded the mtgs: @DrKellyLomax @KimStep6 & @shirfarr can teach a master class on hitting the main points & connecting to local needs & examples. So grateful to have such committed colleagues!
