🌎 📚 ✏️ We are excited to announce we are forming Early Scholars & Gifted Classrooms for the 2026–2027 school year.
✨ This new initiative is designed for students in grades K–2 who demonstrate advanced academic potential and are ready for increased rigor, accelerated learning opportunities, and deeper exploration of grade-level standards.
The Early Scholars & Gifted Program is a full-time classroom experience. Students selected for the program will learn in dedicated Early Scholars classrooms where accelerated instruction, enrichment, and advanced learning opportunities are embedded throughout the school day.
The program will be available at all elementary schools.
Students may be considered for the program using multiple measures, including:
✔ Academic performance and achievement data
✔ District assessment results, including STAR Reading and Mathematics
✔ Kindergarten Readiness Screener results (for incoming kindergarten students)
✔ Teacher recommendations
✔ Demonstrated character and behavior
✔ Gifted eligibility (where applicable)
We know many of our students are ready for additional academic challenge. Across our district, we have students reading chapter books in first grade, participating in novel studies in second grade, and performing at and above state averages in foundational literacy skills. 🙌
The Early Scholars & Gifted Classrooms will provide these students with opportunities to learn alongside other high-achieving students while engaging in accelerated literacy, advanced mathematics, enrichment, leadership development, and character education.
Families interested in having their child considered for the program should complete the application linked below.
Important Notes:
• There is no application fee.
• Submission of the application does not guarantee placement.
• Additional screening information may be requested.
• If your incoming kindergarten student has already completed the Kindergarten Readiness Screener as part of enrollment, there is no need to complete the screener again unless you would like your child considered for this program.
