🌷 2025 G/T 🌷 SPRING Sessions

In Texas, state law requires those who teach G/T students or have authority over planning and programming of those students have specific foundational training for working with G/T students.

This initial training consists of 30-hours of training, usually broken down into five separate 6-hour sessions.

We will continue to offer hybrid and virtual versions of this training. Each session requires a morning and afternoon online session in addition to independent research and work time. Check in begins at 8:30am.

🔊 IMPORTANT NOTES:

- Participation is required via Zoom (camera on, mic ready) at the am and pm sessions with independent work time throughout the day to complete the module

- Participants will receive the Zoom link the day before the session

According to state law, all counselors and administrators must have six hours of G/T training specific to their roles as school leaders of gifted students. Prior to HB 3, the training was a combined session designed for counselors and administrators. School leaders should take the session most appropriate to their job duties. For the hybrid version, we will begin and end the session together (in a Zoom session), but work independently throughout the day.
