School Notes
Developed over 25 years, our curriculum provides integrated
in-depth studies and enrichment as well as opportunities for
students to develop strong problem solving and critical thinking
skills. Supplementing the basic curriculum, our school also offers
fine arts, world languages, discovery science, computer education,
and physical fitness. In addition to cognitive and academic needs,
gifted children have social and emotional needs that are often
overlooked. We squarely address this issue by recognizing that each
student is a unique individual. Our teachers combine compassion and
understanding with the best instructional techniques, technology
and practices. They take into account all aspects of giftedness to
help each child reach his or her potential. As a result of their
effort, our teaching team provides a creative, highly interactive,
cooperative, and individualized environment. For our teachers and
staff, teaching gifted children is more than just a profession. It
is a calling in which they firmly believe. Our teachers feel they
can profoundly and positively impact gifted students, their
families and the world. It is estimated that two to five percent of
the population is gifted, crossing all ethnic, racial and gender
lines. Sadly because of myths and misconceptions, too many
educational institutions fail to identify and to develop these
children.

A great school that really knows how to educate gifted kids. As an alum, I know firsthand that their method not only challenges students in the right ways, it also provides long-term preparation for how to handle challenges later in life. Absolutely wonderful and highly dedicated faculty!
