What does it mean to be a Gifted Learner?

Kendrick Lakes GT Program is currently phasing out due to decrease in need and enrollment in the area. While we will continue to serve our students with Advanced Learning Plans (ALP) and clustering these students with Highly Qualified GT Certified Teachers, we will only currently be serving 4th and 5th graders through a GT center-based programming model.   gifted blocks
