In this week’s episode, our hosts have a deep discussion with Michelle Gierman about how Gifted and Talented education fits within a MTSS Framework. Michelle comes to us with over 20 years in education from elementary through college. She currently serves as the AI Strategist and gifted education coordinator in the Avondale School District where she co-founded the GATE Magnet School. We hope this conversation will stretch your understanding of Gifted and Talented education, and how we can widen the aperture of MTSS to support all students at all achievement levels.
Hosts: Jay Haffner - Literacy Consultant, Katie Morrison - Mathematics Education Consultant, Dr. Steven Snead - Supervisor of Curriculum & Assessment.
