The Gifted and Talented Education provides enrichment opportunities to K-12 students that are designed to address the specific area of giftedness and/or enhance talents that the students have been identified for. The categories of giftedness or talent include:
- Intellectual Ability - Creative/Divergent Thinking
- Academic Aptitude/Achievement
- Leadership
- Visual & Performing Arts.
The program insures holistic development of each student through cultural, social, physical, and intellectual/academic experiences that will provide identified students with opportunities to become self-actualized, self-motivated leaders, life-long learners, community contributors, and producers of ideas. Opportunities are provided before, during, and after school hours, as well as, within the classroom.
Partnering with parents/guardians and school faculty throughout the entire process assures success of the individual student achievement in their area of gifts and talents!
