Special Interest Groups (SIGS)

---

GPACAC is launching two (more to come) Special Interest Groups (SIG) for the 2024-2025 school year. Special interest groups are a way for specific and smaller subsets of colleagues to come together to network, collaborate, and share amongst each other. SIG leaders will host virtual meetings on a regular basis.

Join the February Rural Community Support SIG meeting February 18, 2025 @ 2:00pm CST, as we welcome guest speaker and facilitator, Colleen Helmers with Kansas State's Staley School of Leadership. We will discuss the topic of students recognizing their leadership potential, how this may look different in rural communities, and how we, as admissions professionals, high school counselors and supporters working in rural areas, can facilitate this conversation.
