Legislative Coffee Break

"MAGC will sponsor a "Coffee and Cookies" reception at the Capitol on Thursday Feb. 25 from 1:00 --2:30.  We will begin setting up at 12:00. The entire state is invited to encourage their teachers, parents, and students to take advantage of this opportunity to visit Mississippi's beautiful Capitol and meet some of our great legislators.  Just remember to be positive!

If your group or class would like to be involved in this, please email Teresa Mosley at trmosley1@yahoo.com for instructions regarding being a host group.

Teachers & Parents of Gifted Children

Many of you asked to be informed of news concerning the future of gifted programming for your children so that you would have the opportunity to contact lawmakers.  Click here for the recent news article sharing Governor Barbour’s recommendation of a 68% cut to gifted, special and vo-tech education programs.  Please review the news article and consider contacting the lawmakers who represent your area to voice your concern.  Thank them for their past support of gifted education and ask them to please continue their support for our children.  Please see the contact information for Mississippi Senators and Representatives at the link below.  If you wish, take a few minutes to immediately call and/or email as many as you are able.
