Gifted
EducationPhilosophy
Gifted students require time to study and learn with
like peers. In order to meet the diverse learning needs of these students
and because they have previously mastered many of the concepts, they are
clustered in their grade level classrooms. Teachers can then nurture
behaviors exhibited by gifted students, provide opportunities to stretch their
learning and provide accelerated learning opportunities. As a part of this
clustering, students are also pulled out of their regular classrooms for a small
portion of their week to learn with other gifted students.
Unless the student
needs to meet a deadline for work completion, all assigned work will be
completed during the pull-out class time. Most projects will span a trimester
grading period.
