Many gifted high school students don’t fit in with the norm - but once they find their niche and get to know peers with similar interests, they thrive.
Attention @hcdsb parents - last chance to complete the budget survey before it closes at noon. Make sure you have your say - there is $400 million at stake!

Thank you @TDSB@shelleylaskin for updating the #SpecEd Plan to reflect that students do not need multiple or additional exceptionalities to be considered #gifted See the new plan here: tdsb.on.ca/EarlyYears/Spe… (in word format so accessible!)
Want to Make Gifted Education More Equitable? First, Be Aware of the Political Winds That Drove (and Derailed) Innovative Policies in These States @The74the74million.org/?p=518569
Agree that meeting 2e needs critical, but this wording makes it sound like having a 2nd exceptionality required. The wording has been changed to reflect that they MAY have these needs, rather than that they require them to receive GP. x.com/thisiscaren/st…
Authentic and relevant questions by @tdsb#trustees showing genuine engagement and interest in really discussing @malloy_john Director’s Response to #eetf report.
Again, thank you @trusteecglover. We also we hope that new policies might be considered to enhance equity (ie an acceleration policy) @tdsb@malloy_johnx.com/abctorontochpt…
Add: equity doesn’t mean agreement. In fact, what has been clear from tonight is that equity means FAIR and APPROPRIATE choices that are student focused. @tdsb@malloy_john
