Students found eligible for gifted education services have demonstrated areas of unusual strengths. Services are provided because the identified students have a documented need for differentiation in their instructional program. This differentiation provides daily academic challenges and social-emotional support to ensure continued intellectual growth and development. The gifted education program at E.C. Killin considers individual strengths in matching students to services because each student has a unique profile of strength. Among the program service options are: regular classroom with differentiation, regular classroom with cluster grouping and differentiation, regular classroom with grade acceleration of specific content, resource sessions outside the classroom, grade acceleration for specific content, grade acceleration, individualized services and additional opportunities.
