Springfield, Illinois, April 18, 2007 -- The Illinois Association for Gifted Children is holding its ³Please, Donıt Leave Our Children Behind² Day, April 18, 2007, in Springfield, Illinois. More than three hundred children and adults, including parents and educators, are scheduled to visit the state capital, see law-makng in action, meet their local legislators, join together for a picnic lunch with other families of gifted children from across the state, visit historic sites, tour the Lincoln Library, and more!

The children will experience democracy in action, see how laws are made, and meet their local representatives. State lawmakers will see that many of their constituents are interested in educating gifted children.
