Michigan Association for Gifted Children stands in full support of a recent statement by the National Association for Gifted Children regarding the recent trends in anti-LGBTQ legislation.
This statement reads, in part, “NAGC strongly supports the equitable and respectful treatment of all gifted learners, regardless of their sexual orientation or gender identity, and asks educators to demonstrate compassionate understanding of these students and support them in reaching their maximum potential. NAGC ardently condemns any laws, regulations, or guidance that seek to harm, isolate, exclude, or silence LGTBQ+ gifted students and their allies during their continued struggle for acceptance and equality in schools and communities across the country.”
