Gifted & Talented
Goal of Advanced Academics:
Advanced Academics will develop and implement courses, assessments, programs, services, and support systems that reflect our commitment to ensuring all students demonstrate college readiness or earn post-secondary credit by high school graduation.
What is Gifted and Talented (GT)?:
GT students perform at, or show the potential to perform at, a remarkably high level of accomplishment when compared to others of the same age, experience or environment, and exhibit high performance capability in an intellectual area or excel in a specific academic field.
Identification:
Any student can be referred for GT evaluation testing by a parent, staff member, or student. Please contact the campus GT Facilitator for more information.
