AIG

North Carolina Definition of Giftedness:
Academically and/or intellectually gifted students perform or show the potential to perform at substantially high levels of accomplishment when compared with others of their age, experience, or environment. Academically and/or intellectually gifted students exhibit high performance capability in intellectual areas, specific academic fields, or in both intellectual areas and specific academic fields. Academically and/or intellectually gifted students require differentiated education services beyond those ordinarily provided by the regular education program. Outstanding abilities are present in students from all cultural groups, across all economic strata, and in all areas of human endeavor.

Philosophy
We are committed to providing quality learning opportunities for all students. We acknowledge our responsibility to discover, nurture, and develop the potential of each student.

We recognize that:

• Gifted students have exceptional abilities, talents, and strengths

• Gifted students come from diverse families and cultures

• Gifted students have unique cognitive and affective needs which may require differentiated programs and services

We believe that:

• Our responsibility is to provide an array of services that maximize the potential of each of these students

• These services should be provided by well qualified, knowledgeable staff

• Continuous communication and collaboration among teachers, parents, administrators, and community members are essential to meet the needs of all students
