Academic Enrichment. Honors students will pursue academic excellence both in and out of the classroom. Students will use the Honors Contract to construct purposeful and intellectually stimulating programs of study.
Academic Enrichment. The ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Park School District uses multiple measures to identify students who are gifted and talented in grades kindergarten through eight. Our instructional programs are primarily focused on delivering appropriate modifications within regular classrooms, providing differentiated levels of instructions to all students. The district is fortunate to have its typical student achieve at the high average level on nationally normed tests of academic achievement. For this reason our curriculum and levels of instruction already provide enrichment for the high achieving student while meeting the needs of the various levels of functioning within the classroom setting. Our teachers are trained, through a regional staff development center, to accommodate varied learning styles, authentic assessment, and through cooperative learning strategies and the techniques necessary to teach to the recognized learning styles of the learners. Through the use of differentiated instruction, the educational needs of most students who are identified as gifted and talented can be met within our regular classroom instruction. In addition to the regular classroom the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Park School District offers a variety of enrichment programs geared to meeting the needs of students who are identified as gifted and talented. The offerings vary on a year-to-year basis depending upon the needs of those students identified for the program. For additional information, please contact ▇▇. ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, the teacher for our Gifted and Talented Program.
