What the evidence confirms
Program for Enrichment
A performance-based model combines enrichment and acceleration in academic strength and interest areas for students needing more challenge than the regular classroom can provide.
How services work: Enrichment specialists teach students in pull-out resource classrooms, work with advanced students in regular classrooms, model lessons, and consult with classroom teachers.
How students are identified: Anyone knowledgeable about a student may refer through the Student Support Team, all second graders are observed, and multiple criteria in aptitude, characteristics, and performance determine eligibility.
