GT Discover Compass

Mission

GT Discover builds the capacity of schools, communities, and parents to identify and serve more gifted and talented students, especially those who are historically underrepresented, serving as a repository of resources, learning opportunities, and a collaborative community for stakeholders.

About GT Discover

GT Discover is a website developed under federal funding through the U.S. Department of Education’s Jacob K. Javits Gifted and Talented Education Grant. The website is co-owned by the Maryland State Department of Education, Division of Curriculum, Instructional Improvement, and Professional Learning (MSDE), and the IDEALS Institute at the Johns Hopkins School of Education.

The website is free to use. We seek content from a variety of contributors, who will receive authorship attribution and links to their organization. All content reflects the views and opinions of the author and/or organization, and do not necessarily reflect the views and opinions of either MSDE, the IDEALS Institute, U.S. Department of Education, the financial sponsors, or other contributors.
