GIFTED AND TALENTED

“Aiming for Excellence” Program  

Purpose: To ensure that M.S.A.D. 75 meets its legal ( Maine’s Chapter 104) and ethical obligations to students markedly ahead of peers in core academic subjects.

Identification : At present, Maine law limits this group to 5% of total enrollment. For this reason, M.S.A.D. 75 typically selects fewer than 2% of students in each core subject. Identification is reviewed annually.

Core Commitments :

• Work at an appropriate level of challenge
• Time to work with intellectual peers
• Information and guidance regarding additional opportunities

Programming : Student needs are defined and matched to each school’s resources through a collaborative planning process. G/T staff are case managers, consultants, advocates, and facilitators of this process.
