The Advanced Learner Programs Office supports administrators and teachers in recognizing and challenging student potential and advanced learning capabilities. To meet the differences of the student population, as well as the unique stages of development, the Advanced Learning continuum is broken down into four distinct areas:
• Primary ALPs (PreK - Grade 2)
• Intermediate ALPs (Grades 3 - 5)
• Middle School ALPs (Grades 6 - 8)
• Advanced Learning in High School (Grades 9 - 12)
The Advanced Learning Continuum addresses two vital needs:
• Recognizing and documenting the potential of students
• Providing appropriate levels of challenge based on student need and/or identification
