What the evidence confirms

Academically or Intellectually Gifted (AIG)

Rowan-Salisbury combines early talent nurturing, identified elementary services, advanced secondary pathways, and enrichment opportunities under its 2025–2028 local plan.

How services work: PETS critical-thinking lessons nurture K–3 learners; identified grades 4–5 students receive modified pull-outs in reading, mathematics, or intellectual giftedness; secondary options include honors, AP, early college, dual enrollment, research, internships, and mentorships.

How students are identified: Multiple pathways recognize intellectual, combined academic-intellectual, reading, and mathematics strengths using aptitude, achievement, grades, gifted-rating evidence, teacher recommendations, local norms, and nonverbal measures.
