GIFTED AND TALENTED
Gifted and Talented Program Philosophy
The Perrysburg Gifted Education Department believes that in every school there are children who require differentiated educational programs to realize their full contribution to self and society.
While gifted students share many of the same needs as other children, they possess characteristics that require different educational goals. By virtue of exceptional abilities and motivation, they are capable of outstanding performance.
The Perrysburg Gifted Education Program exists so that all children identified as gifted can be provided accelerated and/or enrichment experiences that replace, supplement or extend learning beyond the standard curriculum.
In our ongoing pursuit of excellence, the Perrysburg Gifted Program strives to provide all children who are identified as gifted with quality accelerated and/or enrichment experiences that replace, supplement or extend learning beyond the standard curriculum.
