Department Overview

  • The ASD Gifted Program provides services for students identified as academically or intellectually gifted, offering a variety of services to students in grades K-12. There are over 3,000 students enrolled in the Gifted Program yearly. The program strives to be flexible and visionary in its focus, both in order to meet the needs of identified students and to make some services available to all students. We recognize that by raising the academic levels in schools, all students benefit.
