About the PGT

Logo.png

The PGT is an organization of parents, teachers and administrators in Parsippany dedicated to supporting the children enrolled in the GRO (Gifted Reach Out) Program.  The PGT serves as a direct link between you, the family members, and the GRO Program.  

​​

  • The PGT supports the GRO Program and many of its activities throughout the school year.  PGT uses the funds raised though membership fees ($25) to offer events, trips, resources and programs for the GRO students who are registered PGT Members.
     

  • We hold PGT meetings that will include updates on PGT events, GRO updates and speakers from various organizations to discuss and answer questions about our gifted and talented children and their education.  All PGT Members are welcome to the meetings.
     

  • The PGT is also committed to maintaining our Scholarship Program that awards a scholarship to three graduating seniors (one at each of the three district high schools) who were earlier enrolled in the district elementary schools as GRO students.

 

The PGT encourages you to become a PGT Member. Your membership dues and your generous donations provide the funding we need to help support the GRO Program and for our activities and scholarships.
 

Please do not hesitate to contact the PGT with any questions and/or suggestions.  PGTparsippany@gmail.com
 

We look forward to serving the GRO program and our students throughout this school year.
