@davis_joy So sorry to his family, friends, and the gifted world for this sad news. His work will live on with appreciation from all who use it, share it and read it.
@alabamagifted NJ has NO state funding for gifted (yet). Certainly a problem across our country. Hence the need for Federal $. See bill by @SenBooker@DrAllenMcMillan
“Guess what? Every single kid fell behind last year. ... Let’s focus on the wonderful things these students CAN do.” — Dr. Jonathan Plucker lamenting the heightened focus on student deficits & calling for focus on strengths. #nagc21#nagc2021@NAGCGIFTED
@realScottPeters I have followed, appreciated, and applauded the work of Washington state gifted advocates for many years. Thanks for sharing this piece.
@MsSmarteepants @EBOlady @abbynormansays I am in NJ. Have a masters plus 60 credits, taught for 35 years and never hit six figures. Retired seven years ago. Still consulting, offering workshops, and advocating for kids.
NJ folks, both of our Senators signed, so please thank @SenBooker and @SenMenendez. Other states’ folks, it is an easy ask, so please call your US Senators.
Great day to contact your Senators and ask them to sign the Dear Colleague letter to support the Jacob Javits Gifted and Talented Students Education Act for the FY22. This funding is used for research and programs to support underrepresented students. @NJAGCGifted@NAGCGIFTED
