Highly Capable Program

Does your child exhibit above the norm abilities in one or more of the following domains: intellectual, creative, artistic, leadership, or academic fields such as language arts, mathematics, or science?

Let's support the growth and development of the whole gifted child including their intellectual, social, emotional, and physical domains. Support starts at home! Parents recognize above norm abilities, interests, and passions first.

Parents can engage with their children to provide rich stimulation and learning experiences and discover ways to partner with schools and resources in the broader community to nurture their child’s specialized learning needs.

There are many traits that gifted individuals have in common, but no gifted learner exhibits traits in every area. If you want to explore the list of traits to better help you understand whether your child is gifted, read this article: Traits of Giftedness- Parent/Teacher Guide.
