Parent Advisory Committee
The GT Parent Advisory Committee (PAC) functions as a liaison between campuses and Advanced Academics. PAC members serve GT families on their home campuses by communicating information and sharing feedback to strengthen GT programs and services.
Each campus is invited to appoint a rep to serve each school year.
Contact your campus counselor to find out which PAC member represents your campus!

Throughout the year, Advanced Academics sponsors free sessions on topics of interest to families of GT and high-achieving students. These events include lunch-and-learns, book studies and special guest speakers.
