Gifted Bootcamp Training Gifted Bootcamp Training

The state requires a gifted bootcamp training to be done each year through the IU. This training is designed for gifted teachers, administrators, or anyone else in the district that could benefit from additional training around gifted education. Feel free to share the linked smore with anyone you think should consider attending. This training will be held at the ARIN IU on September 8, 2025. It is early in the year, but hopefully it will be beneficial to not only those attending, but also your students.
