GIFTED EDUCATION
Our mission is to identify, support, and advocate for students with gifted learning needs through appropriately challenging learning opportunities that extend, enhance, and deepen their educational and life experiences. The School District of Clayton Gifted Program is comprised of four levels of service.
Level IV - Exceptionally Gifted Learners
Level III-Highly Gifted Learners
Level II - High Achieving - High Ability Learners
Level I - All Learners
The gifted specialist's involvement increases in intensity of service as the intensity of need increases. The range of services includes providing support and resources to classroom teachers, whole class and small group critical thinking exercises, curriculum compacting, flexible groupings for advanced instruction, direct and collaborative teaching, grade level acceleration, and Individualized Learning Plans.
