Parent and Community involvement is critical to the success of the AIG Program. Enhancing student achievement through collaboration among educators, administrators, parents, and community is a shared goal of New Hanover County Schools and the SIG program.

New Hanover Advisory Council for the Improvemnt of Gifted Educations membership represents school, business, and the community at large. The council strives for diversity among the members balanced by gender, race, and geographic region. In addition the ten members of the council, a liaison representing each school I the system insures a direct communication link between the council and school. An annual report of the actions and findings of the council is made to the Board of Education.

Stakeholders are offered opportunities for feedback, reflection, and communication in regard to the gifted program.

A Parent Advisory Council has been formed for the Local AIG program. Each month at the Spencer Board Room, parents and community leaders meet to support the NHCS AIG Program. Parents are elected and run each meeting much like that of a P.T.A. Meeting. Often NHCS educators present information.

This is a forum for Parents of Gifted Students.
