    Challenge Overview

    The GT department is excited to invite families of gifted students to participate in our GT Family Series Challenge.  Our spring challenge theme is "Spring to Life".  This challenge encourages gifted students to use their curiosity, critical thinking skills, and creative problem-solving skills to develop hands-on products based on an area of interest.  Gifted students in grades (K-12) can select from a list of enrichment activities and design a product of their choice.  Below you will find the "Resources" section, which provides detailed instructions and a checklist for this challenge. Students are asked to submit a video of their final product at gtfbisd@fortbendisd.com on or before Thursday, April 4, 2024.
