Our schools are dedicated to the concept that every student has the right to an education that provides opportunities for the maximum development of his/her potential.  We recognize that some students in our schools have capabilities that are beyond those of their age peers.  The school system encourages, fosters, and supports educational efforts that meet provisions for the special needs of gifted learners.
