The Community Advisory Committee for GATE serves as an important vehicle for parent and community involvement in the educational program of gifted and advanced learners. The committee is comprised of parent representatives from each school within our district. CAC-GATE hosts general parent community meetings to promote open communication between district administrators, school staff, and parents. Meetings also provide parents with information and opportunities related to gifted education. All of our CAC-GATE parent nights are open to all IUSD parents.

This month we will be hosting our second CAC-GATE Parent Night of the 2016-2017 school year. I welcome you to join us and bring along other interested IUSD parents. To open the meeting the CAC-GATE Board will share out information regarding recent business. Our keynote speaker Dr. Luis Knight from Boys Town California will present information on how we as parents can support our students as they move through their educational career and beyond. As Coordinator of our Advanced Programs, I will then provide an overview of the Multiple Criteria Measures Process we utilize in IUSD to screen and place students in the GATE program in 3rd through 7th grades. A short question and answer session will also be held at the end of the meeting.

I hope that you are able to join us for this community event.
