What the evidence confirms
Gifted Programs
Henrico combines school-based resource services, elementary center classrooms, middle-school gifted electives, and specialized secondary opportunities.
How services work: Push-in or pull-out enrichment begins in elementary school; eligible fourth- and fifth-graders may use school- or zone-based centers, and middle-school students can take TAG electives or apply to the Gifted Young Scholars Academy.
How students are identified: The division uses multiple criteria to identify learners in general intellectual and academic areas, with program eligibility tied to the needs documented in the student profile.
