Advocacy Alert: Support the ACE Act
?
?
The ACE Act establishes a competitive grant program for states and school districts to bridge gaps in access to advanced coursework. Historically marginalized and underrepresented children performing at the same level as their gifted peers are far less likely to be enrolled and served in gifted programs. Such discrepancies can lead to excellence gaps, widen inequality, diminish intellectual pride, and cause serious cultural and economic harm due to lost talent. The ACE Act helps address these issues by supporting evidence-based interventions such as universal screening and expanded offering of advanced courses.
