Monroe County, Georgia

Gifted Education Program

Monroe County provides differentiated gifted curriculum grounded in Georgia standards and focused on cognitive learning, research and reference, metacognition, and appropriate mastery expectations.

How services work: Students with family consent receive at least five gifted-education segments per week or the yearly equivalent, with curriculum and instruction adjusted to learner needs at each grade.

How students are identified: The district publishes school-specific referral forms and follows Georgia's mental ability, achievement, creativity, and motivation criteria. Families may submit a referral through their school and receive local guidance from Teaching and Learning.
