House Bill 190 required Kentucky districts to establish a plan for advanced coursework. To support this initiative, we are inviting elementary and middle school principals to join The Center for Gifted Studies for The Principals Cohort for Advanced Content. This cohort will bring together principals from across the state to share ideas about how to best serve our advanced learners. Meetings will be held at Western Kentucky University. Dinner and breakfast will be provided. We hope you will join us to discuss how to best serve advanced learners at local schools and beyond.

Why
Talent development is a continuum. Advanced learners need challenge throughout their education, and principals play a vital role in creating opportunities that help their talents grow.

When

• October 27, 2:00 p.m. (Central Time) – 7:00 p.m. (Central Time) [Including dinner]
• October 28, 8:00 a.m. (Central Time) – 11:30 a.m. (Central Time) [Including breakfast]
• A follow up meeting in 2027 will be planned.

Where
Western Kentucky University, Bowling Green, KY

Who
Elementary and Middle School Principals from Kentucky – We encourage principals to bring one other school/district educator focused on providing advanced learning opportunities. This person can attend in addition to the principal but not instead of the principal.

Registrations will be accepted on a first-come, first-serve basis until the event is at capacity.
