The deadline to submit an application for the Margaret Bynum Scholar award has been extended to April 8, 2019.

The Georgia Association for Gifted Children announces a new scholarship opportunity for Georgia teachers! This spring, one teacher from each of our Georgia RESA regions will be named a GAGC Bynum Scholar and will receive a scholarship to earn the gifted endorsement online through CASENEX and a complimentary one-year membership to GAGC. Upon completion of the CASENEX gifted endorsement, each Bynum Scholar will also receive a complimentary registration to the GAGC Convention. We plan to name 16 GAGC Bynum Scholars, one to represent each of the 16 RESA regions in Georgia.

The criteria for applying to become a GAGC Bynum Scholar are:

• Clear, renewable, Georgia teaching certification and two or more years of successful teaching experience
• Recommendations from school or district gifted coordinator or administrator
• A current contract with a Georgia school district that does not provide the gifted endorsement for teachers cost-free
• School Principal signature of support

Application Deadline: March 29, 2019
