We are excited to share that we are presenting at this year’s National Association for Gifted Children (NAGC) Teachers Summit on February 11!

Our session, The Leadership Lab: Strategies to Develop Student Voice and Agency, focuses on practical, identity-centered tools that help middle and high school gifted and advanced learners lead their learning with confidence, purpose, and meaningful engagement.

We’ll explore routines that build autonomy, structures that elevate student voice, and strategies that empower learners to take ownership of their growth—because when students lead, classrooms transform. We are honored to learn alongside educators who believe in potential, brilliance, and the power of students’ voices.

Javits Gifted and Talented Student Education Program — a lifeline for research, innovation, and equity in gifted education — has not been reinstated in the FY26 federal budget proposal. The Javits Gifted and Talented Student Education Program is the only federal funding program specifically focused on supporting gifted and talented learners. Losing this important funding would be a significant step backward for the field of gifted and talented education.

Support Gifted Education in FY 2026 The Fiscal Year 2026 budget proposal for the U.S. Department of Education includes the elimination of the Javits program, replacing it with the proposed smaller, more general “K–12 Simplified Funding Program.” This would result in fewer states...
