Programs for Talented Youth

As a new editor, I'm not sure how to approach adding a new section, but Vanderbilt's various PTY (Programs for Talented Youth) programs seem notable, or at least worth a mention.

Main page: https://pty.vanderbilt.edu/

Their programs include:

·PTY Online Academy, an online program for talented youth

·Mentor Immersion, a program to expose talented youth to mentors in a specific field

·SAVY, a summer education program for gifted and high-achieving for K-6 (effectively rising 1-7, given that is a summer program)

·SAVY Career Connections, held within SAVY for rising 7-8, but with ' a particular focus on how content knowledge is applied in various ways in various fields or industries.'

·WAVU, an 'intensive academic experience that provides qualifying students with an in-depth look at careers in math, science, engineering, and humanities' for 'motivated and advanced learners in grades 7 through 12 who typically test at the 85th percentile and above on either verbal or nonverbal sections of academic achievement or ability tests'

·VSA, a program which provides 'the perfect balance of an intensive academic environment combined with a community-driven residential experience at one of the leading universities in the nation' for those who test in the 90th percentile or above.
