Klein ISD utilizes the © LAUNCH Cycle Framework created by John Spencer and A.J. Juliani.
A: Every GT student in Klein ISD will be given the opportunity, as a part of their school day, to learn research and complete a pathway of their choosing. We highly recommend that each student take advantage of this to prepare for the advanced level classes they will be taking in high school and college.
A: Yes! You may choose whichever pathway you like based on your interests and topic. The pathways are meant to be a progression, but can be completed in any order. Our goal is for every GT student to complete a Sophisticated Product during their high school years through an AP Capstone or AP Research class, but this can be accomplished by elementary and intermediate students as well.
A: Most campuses will give you the opportunity to select a GT teacher to guide you through this process. They may be your "mentor" or "facilitator". If you are not sure if you have a mentor, please see your campus GT Advocate for assistance.
A: No, you do not. You will be given adequate time at school throughout the year to complete your research.
