Welcome to the Young Scholars
Student Portfolio Showcase
The Young Scholars Program is an initiative of LISD that provides enrichment and extension for third through fifth grade advanced learners who are not enrolled in the Dual Language or Gifted and Talented programs. Young Scholars are students who stand out in their classrooms as high achievers and are often leaders among their peers. As a district, we believe it is our responsiblity to expand upon what these students learn in the classroom, to recognize their abilities, and to build self-confidence. The Young Scholars Program is designed to do just that. Participation in Young Scholars is criteria based and by invitiation. Sessions for these students are divided into units of study connecting to core curricular areas. Young Scholars is one example of the many opportunities provided by LISD for recognizing student success and potential.
