maleteacher.jpgTo appropriately identify, develop, and nurture individual talent, educators at every level -- from the classroom to the district office -- must understand the strategies, practices, and tools. Once understood, you need up-to-date information, analysis of the latest education research, and access to professional development opportunities and resources. That's where NAGC comes in! Don't we want every student to reach their highest potential?
