How do you differentiate for gifted learners?
We differentiate through depth, complexity, novelty, and acceleration. As a SAS school, we also utilize flexible grouping, accelerated pacing, tiered lessons, learning and interest centers, project-based learning, novel products, and the real-life application of standards. Our staff engages in over 16 hours of gifted professional development each year.
