The high school has so many course offerings and a lot of thought is put into students' schedules to challenge each individual, but if you have a specific need for a student, please don't hesitate to reach out. I am in the building for office hours 8th period on most days. There are also Enrichment Rooms available for students in the "Students" section of this website.
Additional K-7 Math Resources
Beast Academy was developed to help accelerated learners ages 6‑13 build their problem-solving skills while learning elementary math. Students learn new topics from the graphic-novel-style Guides, and then master math topics by solving engaging problems and challenging puzzles online.
Prodigy Math engages students and evaluates their skills to determine if they are learning math problems at the right level. Prodigy Math then uses adaptive algorithms to continue to challenge the student.
Additional ELA Resources
Prodigy English offers personalized learning, an engaging storyline, and the ability to work on more complex concepts, helping to make it easier for teachers to differentiate instruction for gifted learners.
