Gifted and Talented
Prospect Park School offers a Gifted and Talented program to eligible students.
The Prospect Park School District believes that all students can learn. The district also knows that all students are individuals and that there is no single learning prescription that fits all students. The Gifted and Talented Program is designed to provide identified students a supportive environment which provides learning opportunities specifically to meet the diverse needs of the Gifted and Talented students. Such opportunities include learning experiences that support collaboration, critical thinking, adaptability, problem solving, decision making as well as supports our students socially and emotionally. This hands-on program supports the whole child and taps into the strengths, interests, aspirations, abilities and talents of each individual learner and is interdisciplinary focusing in all areas of the curriculum.
Gifted and Talented students also must be supported in the classroom to meet the unique needs of each child. In addition to the Gifted and Talented program, Gifted and Talented students are supported through differentiation in all classes in order to support their needs as they learn and grow in the individual subject areas.
