![]() CESA #1 PAGE has been in existence for over twenty years, PAGE was founded as a cooperative effort among many of the school districts in Southeastern WI. Many districts wanted to offer gifted workshops, family events, and advocacy awareness activities, but were constrained by their individual district budgets. In pooling their resources, these districts found that they could bring in high-profile speakers, plan and deliver quality enrichment activities for kids and families, educate parents and teachers, and advocate for gifted education in their local districts. Some of the highly successful activities of PAGE include:
CESA #1 PAGE is a working committee, with one educator and one parent from each participating district. Together, these highly motivated individuals have created opportunities that have touched lives of thousands of gifted kids and their families over the years. At their recent May 2015 meeting, the group changed their formal name from Parent Advocates for Gifted Education to Partners for the Advancement of Gifted Education, to more clearly emphasize their unique partnership.
