Do you believe your child demonstrates exceptional abilities or a unique talent? Now is the time to act! The referral window for the Gifted and Talented (GT) Program is officially open.

Students currently enrolled in kindergarten through 12th grade can be referred for the GT Program. This is a chance for them to be recognized and supported in their areas of strength. Referrals can be submitted by a variety of people, including:

Parents

Teachers

Counselors

Community members

The students themselves

If you think your child would be a great fit for this program, we encourage you to submit a referral during this window. This is a fantastic opportunity to provide your child with resources and an academic environment that will help them thrive.

Discover Your Child's Potential: Gifted and Talented Awareness Session for Parents will take place virtually on September 17th. More information is shared within the flyer, or you may call our counselor.
