What is ELP?
ELP stands for Extended Learning Program. The goal of our ELP program is to provide enrichment and extension for students who show a need to be challenged beyond the standard curriculum. ELP programming provides above-level options for identified students at all three district buildings: Washington Elementary, Mount Vernon Middle School, and Mount Vernon High School.
Mount Vernon Community School District recognizes that the student population includes students with exceptional academic abilities. These students have a need for educational services that are consistent with their ability levels and learning characteristics such as thinking abstractly, having the ability to study a topic in depth, and learning rapidly. These students shall be provided with appropriately challenging curricula and instruction that are congruent with their learning abilities and styles through the shared responsibility of teachers, gifted and talented specialists, administrators, counselors,
parents and learners themselves.
Mount Vernon Community School District is committed to providing educational programming that recognizes the unique abilities and needs of these students, while promoting progress from their points of entry.
