In addition, the program provides the student with positive group experiences with their intellectual peers. Program components include:

 

The Elementary Workshop Program – Grades K-5

Grades K-2: Identified students whose needs cannot be met in the regular program receive individual instruction from the building based Workshop Program teacher on an “as needed” basis.

Grades 3-5: gifted students meet with the Workshop Program teacher in their individual schools for two hours each week. Gifted teachers also collaborate in regular education classrooms to extend units/lessons for gifted and high achieving students.
