The NHCS Gifted Advisory Council, an advocacy group for gifted students, requests that each school selects a liaison to attend GAC meetings once per month. The liaison’s responsibilities include: meeting attendance, sharing meeting notes and relevant issues with the school, as well as advocating for gifted education. If you would like to be involved in the Gifted Advisory Council and be the Trask liaison, please let me know. Diana.Woodlock@nhcs.net 910-350-2142 ext 76033

All are welcome!

All meetings are from 6:00 pm - 7:00 pm at:

Board of Education Building

1805 S. 13th Street,

Wilmington, NC 28401

*Unless otherwise noted*

All DEPs will be emailed to parents by the end of September for electronic signatures. If you do not see an email with this information by the end of September, please check your spam or junk folder.

Think of the DEP as a roadmap for your child’s journey through the school year. Like planning a cross-country trip, it highlights your child’s strengths, outlines the best path for continued growth, and identifies the supports and strategies that will help them be successful. Our goal is to ensure each student’s experience is personalized, purposeful, and designed to help them grow.

I look forward to partnering with you throughout the school year! As always, please feel free to reach out with any questions or if you would like to discuss your child’s DEP.
