The purpose of the GATEWAY program at PLES is to provide enriching and challenging education for gifted and academically talented students. These students have differentiated learning needs that must be met in all academic areas. Students are provided with opportunities to develop and apply skills in the following areas: advanced research and communication, creative thinking, critical thinking, and problem solving, as well as in the areas of STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Math). In the gifted enrichment class students will rotate through stations to further develop these skills. Differentiation is developed for these students through the curriculum components of content, process, and product.
Students may be served through state approved models such as resource, cluster grouping, and collaborative teaching (all of these models take place at PLES).
All students in the GATEWAY program must receive a minimum of 5 segments of gifted services each week.
