Instead, they need the opportunity to explore the world around them and construct varied viewpoints, test hypotheses, and learn by doing. Our SPARK program is designed to keep up with their pace-not the other way around! We know gifted students don’t simply need more work. Students who work more quickly than their peers are able to do so in our environment to ensure they are continually challenged. High school students may select from a variety of advanced courses and college courses through concurrent enrollment with ILA and ASU. Gifted students in elementary and middle school are placed in gifted-specific core courses that extend their thinking, challenge their views, and require them to think critically in the areas of math, language arts, science, and social studies.
Students in grades 6-12 meet weekly for enrichment with their assigned SPARK teacher in addition to working individually with their teacher as they make progress toward their passion project. Gifted students in grades K-5 participate in a self-contained gifted classroom with small class sizes and daily live classes. Students identified as gifted and talented are afforded the opportunity to explore their interests through the core course curriculum, capstone projects, and a diverse offering of relevant and engaging foreign language, electives, and advanced courses. Check out the student-created recap video showcasing student work through their project based learning SPARK Island Adventure during the 2020-21 school year!
