Serve

Every school in DCSD has gifted programming options as a part of its Multi Tiered System of Supports (MTSS). To that end, each school site has a gifted education contact. The contact collaborates/consults with building leadership, classroom teachers, parents and students to identify, plan for, and appropriately serve gifted/high potential students.

Identification

The National Association for Gifted Children NAGC recommends that all students have the opportunity to participate in the screening process for identification to ensure equitable access to programming. In accordance with state and national guidelines, the Gifted Education Department has developed a process to gather data in order to match appropriate services to identified student need.
