Guilford Gifted is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization supporting our community’s brightest young minds with strong advocacy for the advancement of gifted education. We provide the tools to engage and empower all those involved with gifted children, thereby building tomorrow’s leaders today.

We are proud to announce that 2024 will be the inaugural year of the annual Guilford Gifted Educator Grant!  Grants are intended to support programs for gifted learners, such as classroom projects, field trips, clubs/teams, and technical resources. These awards are to help you expand your students’ knowledge and experience in or out of the classroom.

One award of up to $500.00 will be granted.
