Community Advisory Committee Advanced Learning and Differentiation

Community Advisory Committee of Advanced Learning and Differentiation (formerly CAC-GATE) serves as an important vehicle for parent and community involvement in the educational program of gifted and advanced learners. The committee is comprised of parent representatives from each school within our district. Three committee meetings are held annually to promote open communication between district administrators, school staff, and parents. Meetings also provide parents with information and opportunities related to gifted education. If you are interested in volunteering as a parent representative, please speak with your school's Advanced Learning Site teacher representative. Meetings are open to all IUSD community members.
