Wellington ISD rejects GATE program again
Wellington ISD again refused to revive the Gifted and Talented Enrichment program at a May 27 meeting with a 3-2 vote. Supt. Dr. Lawrence Ward urged revival citing state law and a 155 minute weekly study requirement. The decision requires refund of about 1500 dollars from the state and attendance by principals and GATE parents at the discussion.
