The Mills Park Middle School AIG program serves over 1,000 students identified as Academically and/or Intellectually Gifted as well as students in our Talent Development Program. Each year we seek to identify even more exceptional students through nominations and testing. At Mills Park, we recognize that giftedness is a unique trait. We seek ways to challenge and celebrate each student as an individual.
