Challenge Gifted Program

Thomaston-Upson serves gifted learners throughout primary, elementary, middle, and high school with accelerated, enriched, and differentiated learning.

How services work: Primary and elementary schools use resource, cluster, and advanced-content models; middle school adds collaborative teaching and at least five weekly resource segments; high-school options are detailed in the local handbook.

How students are identified: The district handbook documents Georgia-aligned nomination, screening, evaluation in the four evidence areas, family consent, eligibility, placement, and continuation procedures.
