Gifted Education
A cluster-resource model combines differentiated classroom learning, small-group resource support, acceleration, seminars, and advanced secondary coursework.
How services work: Identified students are cluster-grouped; resource teachers co-plan, co-teach, or provide small groups, while older students can use seminars, AP, IB, dual enrollment, and accelerated-credit options.
How students are identified: Family, teacher, peer, community, or self-referrals are evaluated with ability and creativity assessments, performance tasks, observations, school records, and student work portfolios.
