WCATY About
     The Wisconsin Center for Academically Talented Youth is the only organization working with the state's most promising students on a year-round, statewide basis. Founded in 1991, WCATY provides a unique set of services to children from elementary through high school.

     We believe in their importance individually. We believe in their importance as a group, as potential leaders in our communities and professions. Their future is our future. WCATY will be increasingly effective and the recognized leader in serving Wisconsin's academically talented youth.
