Humble ISD will celebrate Gifted and Talented (G/T) Awareness Week April 6–10, 2026, highlighting the district's commitment to support advanced learners and strengthen student success.
Observed statewide during the first full week of April, G/T Awareness Week promotes understanding of and advocacy for gifted education and the unique needs of advanced learners. The recognition was established through the passage of HCR 64 (Curry and Parker), a resolution advocated by the Texas Association for the Gifted & Talented.
At the elementary level, Humble ISD focuses on early identification and support, with each campus guided by a G/T lead who supports programming, differentiated instruction and enriched learning environments that foster critical thinking, creativity and problem-solving.
“In our elementary G/T program, we believe potential should be recognized early and nurtured intentionally,” Advanced Learning Coordinator for Elementary Schools Dr. Jennifer Williams said. “By creating engaging learning experiences and expanding opportunities for all students, we are building a strong foundation for future growth and success.”
At the middle school level, the district is strengthening systems to better support students, families and campuses. Expanded G/T liaison roles improve communication and ensure consistent services, while a district advisory committee of parents, administrators and counselors provides feedback aligned with the Texas State Plan for G/T Education.
Select campuses are also piloting a sixth-grade G/T advisory class, giving students opportunities to collaborate and reflect on their learning while elevating student voice.
“As we continue to grow our middle school G/T program, we are focused on building intentional systems that support both student outcomes and program fidelity,” Advanced Learning Coordinator for Middle Schools Jennifer Holloway said. “Through our campus liaisons, advisory structures and student-centered opportunities, we are creating more connected, responsive and meaningful experiences for our G/T students.”
