01What it does

What Gifted and Talented Education does

Mission

GATE or Gifted and Talented Education strives to provide excellent choral and music education to young singers in Grades K-12 during the months of August through May. Singers are given the opportunity to develop their singing voice, and to perform for special events throughout the season ranging from holiday celebrations and sporting events to domestic tours. GATE also houses a large summer enrichment program, which offers challenging and engaging courses to young learners in grades K-8. Our SummerGATE program allows students to focus on what they love during the summer months.

As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.

The organization over time

Each line starts at 100 in 2022, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2022, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended. The shaded band is where the middle 50% of its peers' revenue would sit, given their growth.
