What's happening in GT this summer
The GT Department will be working with GT teachers across the district for summer professional development! All core-content teachers (ELA, Math, Science, and Social Studies) who serve GT students are required to have 30 hours of foundational training, and then 6 hours of annual update training. Teachers will receive training on Fort Bend ISD GT programming, along with research-based strategies for working with gifted learners. We are looking forward to teaching and learning with our amazing teachers over the summer!
