Lewis Central Talented and Gifted Mission:
The Lewis Central Community School District Talented and Gifted Program supports our district mission in providing “stimulating and diverse learning experiences” for students with exceptional talents, indicated by rapid rate of learning, in-depth understanding of concepts, and consistent performance at levels well beyond those within expected ranges. We recognize that gifted students possess superior abilities and/or potential and are, therefore, a unique segment of the district’s student population. If gifted students are to develop their abilities and/or potential, they need ongoing and varied educational opportunities to extend their learning. Through an integrated approach, regular classroom teachers and TAG teacher-facilitators work together to provide varied opportunities.
