FOCUS provides gifted learners with opportunities to think deeply, creatively, and independently.
Students explore complex ideas, solve challenging problems, conduct research, collaborate with others, and create authentic products that demonstrate their learning.
FOCUS ISN'T ABOUT MORE WORK.
IT'S ABOUT DEEPER THINKING.
Gifted learners are supported through multiple service models designed to provide appropriate challenge, enrichment, and opportunities for growth.
Students participate in extended learning experiences that develop critical thinking, creativity, problem solving, research, and independence.
Gifted and high-ability students who meet specific criteria, learn together with a gifted-certified classroom teacher who provides academic challenge and extension to grade-level learning standards.
Young learners develop creativity, problem solving, metacognition, and divergent and convergent thinking through engaging learning experiences.
HEATHER NEVIUS
Gifted Program Coordinator & FOCUS Teacher
Welcome to FOCUS! I love helping students discover how much they are capable of thinking, creating, and solving. My goal is to create a learning environment where students feel challenged, curious, supported, and excited to grow.
Questions are always welcome!
Strong communication between home and school helps our students learn, grow, and thrive.
