Supporting Every Child’s Journey

SAGE (Special and Gifted Education) is a program of Texas PTA that focuses on education, support, and advocacy for students who learn differently. Whether they receive special education services, are part of gifted programs, or simply have unique learning needs.

Texas PTA SAGE Mission Statement:

"To promote a climate of inclusion and understanding for children with diverse learning needs through communication, education, and support of families and educators."

At Minett, our SAGE program helps ensure that all students feel seen, supported, and celebrated. Whether a child needs enrichment, accommodations, or just a little extra encouragement, SAGE exists to uplift every learner and foster a strong, inclusive community.

What Does the SAGE Chair Do?

Our SAGE Chair helps bring the mission to life by:

• Promoting awareness and inclusion for students with a variety of learning needs

• Coordinating events like Diverse Abilities Day, which celebrates differences and encourages empathy

• Sharing helpful resources with families and educators

• Supporting collaboration between staff, families, and the PTA

If you have questions, suggestions, or would like to help support SAGE efforts, please reach out to our SAGE Committee Chair at sage@minettpta.com.
