Gifted Students in the State Accountability Plan
The Public Education Department has issued a draft of its new school accountability plan at https://webnew.ped.state.nm.us/information/essa-new-mexico/. Focus areas of the accountability plan drive resource allocation in schools. Tell PED the plan should report advanced performance and gifted students using their survey link: New Mexico State Education Plan Community Input Survey. It will take about four minutes.
Gifted Education Day
Do you know a student who could represent NM gifted students at the legislature on March 8? There is still time to enter our Preparing Leaders Essay Contest. Winners will have their essays published on the NMAG website, and will be recognized on the March 8 on the Rostrum. If you would like to attend and/or bring students to gifted education day, let us know.
(An earlier posting erroneously listed 2/27 as the essay due date)
Save the date of March 8th for Gifted Education Day at the Roundhouse! On this day, we will:
-
- Show our support for gifted education.
- Show our support for HB 454’s promise to advance several causes in gifted education.
- Take a picture to promote gifted education on the roundhouse steps.
- Receive general recognition in the gallery
- Receive specific recognition for five students on the Rostrum.
Specific times for events will be established once we have an approximation of how many students will attend, and the constraints of their travel.
If you can attend, please reserve the day and fill out this form, so we can prepare for your group.
Do you have a student who is interested in representing gifted education? Ask them to complete this short essay, detailing what they need to become a leader in their field of choice. Essays must be submitted by Thursday, 2/28.
