The goal of our Advanced Academics/ Gifted and Talented program is to provide a differentiated, enriched academic environment for students with advanced learning abilities in order to broaden their knowledge, skills, and experiences. Emphasis is on developing independent, self-directed learners by encouraging and supporting in-depth learning and divergent and creative thinking.

 

The Texas Association for the Gifted and Talented (TAGT) is an organization of educators and parents dedicated to meeting the unique needs of gifted and talented students. Chartered in 1978, TAGT is the nation’s largest state advocacy group of its kind, providing nearly 3,000 members and friends of gifted youth a forum for exchanging ideas and information about the education of gifted and talented students. TAGT recognizes the unique social, emotional, and intellectual needs of gifted and talented students and provides educational services to meet these needs.
