Program provides academic and individual stimulation for our community's more able learners.
Goals of the GATE Program include the acquisition of advanced subject matter, the mastery of skills including problem solving, creative thinking and logic and the development of ethical standards and social responsibility along with the skills to interact well with others. Standardized test scores are also screened by the psychologist. Older students may be tested by parent request or following a referral by the teacher. The student's personality characteristics and potential ability to successfully work in a GATE environment are taken into consideration. Teachers have participated since 1988 in an annual summer program of training which is designed to upgrade their science background, teaching and leadership skills.
