Gifted Program Fall Deadline Nears

Published: Wednesday, November 25, 2009 1:26 PM CST

November 30 is the fall deadline to enroll a bright 2nd-8th grade student into the annual academic Talent Search sponsored by The Johns Hopkins University Center for Talented Youth (CTY). In CTY's national program, 2nd-8th graders take special tests, offered locally, that let families see a child's math and verbal talents. The tests can also qualify a child for CTY's summer or online courses for academically talented young people. Celebrating 30 years, CTY has tested over 1.5 million bright young people worldwide. Financial aid is available for children eligible for the free- and reduced-price lunch program. Information: ctyinfo@jhu.edu. Website: www.cty.jhu.edu .
