Urban Gifted Showcase
The second Urban Gifted Showcase was held on June 1 and 2 at Central Connecticut State University in New Britain. Hundreds of students from all over Connecticut came to participate in the
event. The theme was “Dreams Take Flight!” and the event consisted of challenging and inspirational workshops geared to high-ability and motivated learners. The event was designed to enrich and encourage curious students in grades 9-12 on June 1 and grades 4-8 on June 2. Peter Yarrow, of Peter, Paul and Mary fame, was the keynote speaker on June 2.
