The Gifted and Talented team is now recruiting parents to serve on the GT Parent Advisory Committee (GTPAC) for the 2025-2026 school year. The Gifted and Talented Parent Advisory Committee (GTPAC) is comprised of parents of gifted students in Fort Bend ISD who support the GT program offered by Fort Bend ISD. The GTPAC allows parents the opportunity to offer events for our GT community, collaborate with the Fort Bend ISD Gifted and Talented Department and provide feedback related to Gifted and Talented programming. We will be conducting our GTPAC Membership Drive in 2025-2026 beginning on August 15, 2025 and ending on August 30, 2025. If you are interested, please take a moment to complete the GTPAC Interest Form by Saturday, August 30, 2025.
