PAGE - The mission of Pennsylvania Association for Gifted Education (PAGE) is to advocate for mentally gifted children by working with parents, teachers, administrators, policy makers, and the community to meet the diverse needs of gifted learners.
PAGE - The Pennsylvania Association for Gifted Education had its origins in the Pennsylvania Association for the Study and Education of the Mentally Gifted (PASEMG) which emerged from a Conference on Gifted Children and Youth held May, 1951 at Pennsylvania State College. This conference had been organized by Margaret A. Neuber, Chairperson of the Special Education Department at Penn State; and, Dr. Hedwig O. Pregler, Principal of Colfax School in Pittsburgh, early pioneers in gifted education. In November, 1951, at Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, Dr. Pregler was elected President. At a meeting in Pittsburgh on May 16-17, 1952, a constitution was adopted which established the name of the organization as "The Pennsylvania Association for the Study and Education of the Mentally Gifted." This name remained until the Association approved the change to "Pennsylvania Association for Gifted Education," on September 24, 1977.
