  • Gifted Program, Grades 5 and 6:

    In the Gifted program, we encourage our students to think outside the box, and to strengthen their skills as critical thinkers and problem solvers. Students complete activities and projects that move them from dependent to independent, self-motivated learners. Our goal is to help all of our students reach their potential, become confident in their learning, question concepts they don’t fully understand, and enjoy learning!
