GLEE HAS ARRIVED!GIFTED LOCAL ENDORSEMENT FOR EDUCATORS
Description and Definition of Local Endorsement:
Cabarrus County Schools, in compliance with the North Carolina Academically / Intellectually Gifted State
Standards, offers local training to classroom teachers working with gifted students.
This training, Gifted Local Endorsement for Educators (GLEE), is not comparable to AIG state licensure and is non-
transferrable.
GLEE for Middle School promotes basic understanding of the characteristics and social/emotional needs of gifted students as well as implementation of differentiated
content and instructional strategies for advanced learners.
