Our Mission
The New Jersey Association for Gifted Children is a champion for gifted children. We are passionate advocates promoting programs, networks, and legislative actions to meet the needs of these students statewide.
Write for Promise
The Promise Newsletter, a MEMBER-ONLY BENEFIT, is the quarterly digital publication of the New Jersey Association for Gifted Children.
If you are an educator, parent, student, or someone interested in the needs of gifted students, NJAGC encourages you to share your knowledge and expertise with the gifted community by writing an article for the Promise Newsletter.
If you would like to submit an article for publication, please download the submission guidelines with the link below.
Parent Meetings
At this meeting, families and educators will continue their discussions aimed at addressing the needs of gifted and talented students. These conversations center on promoting educational progress and advocating for the unique qualities, traits, and challenges faced by these students. Discussions also aim to empower families to advocate for gifted and talented services within their school districts.
Please feel free to distribute our flyer among other families in your community and/or district who may be interested in joining
NJAGC Administrators’ Network
