Gifted and Talented
Welcome to our Grades 3–5 Gifted and Talented (GT) Program! Designed specifically for advanced elementary learners that demonstrate high academic achievement, our GT program provides a space where students develop critical thinking skills through hands-on, project-based learning. Our goal is to nurture your child's unique potential and help them grow into confident, thoughtful leaders.
Out-of-State Gifted and Talented Placement
With appropriate paperwork and records from the previous school, the child will be placed in the Gifted and Talented pull-out program. If your child does not have data from a previous school qualifying him/her for G.T., they are welcome to join our next scheduled round of testing.
Military Interstate Compact:
"A receiving school district in a member state agrees to initially honor placement of a student based on the student’s enrollment in the sending state as long as that school has a similar or equivalent program. For example, if a student was in Advanced Placement (AP) Calculus, a Gifted and Talented Program, or an English as a Second Language Program in his/her previous school, the student will be placed in that course or program in the receiving school. However, the Compact allows the receiving school to subsequently perform an evaluation to ensure the child is placed appropriately according to its requirements. This provision ensures students will not be placed in a “holding” class while they are awaiting assessment, thus missing out on valuable instruction, but does not take away the new school’s right to set their own criteria for placement in programs or courses. In addition, the Compact does not require the receiving school district to create a course or program that is not currently offered, but does require that the district demonstrate reasonable accommodation. The receiving school may allow the student to attend similar educational courses in other schools within the district if the receiving school does not offer such educational courses."
