Gifted and Talented

Texas Association for the Gifted and Talented Parent Conference Announced

"Genius without education is like silver in a mine."
Benjamin Franklin

The education of our gifted children is critical to their development.

"It is not enough to have a good mind: the main thing is to use it well."
Rene Descartes

Even in the most profoundly gifted child, an education not used is wasted.

"Education is not the filling of a pail, but the lighting of a fire."
William Butler Yeats

Igniting students' curiosity, thus helping them to become lifelong learners, is among our greatest tasks.
