Gifted and Talented at Battle Rock Charter School
At Battle Rock we believe all students have special gifts and talents to share. The Battle Rock model supports opportunities for all students to explore their passions and interests.
In some cases students may show exceptional capability in areas such as intellectual ability, creative, artistic, or leadership capacity, or in specific academic areas. Battle Rock’s Gifted and Talented program identifies and provides appropriate educational experiences for students who give evidence of high performance. We provide opportunities or experiences to fully develop such capabilities in addition to those ordinarily provided by the school curricula.

THE EXCEPTIONAL CHILDREN'S EDUCATIONAL ACT (ECEA) DEFINES "GIFTED" CHILDREN AS:
Those persons between the ages of four and twenty-one whose aptitude or competence in abilities, talents, and potential for accomplishment in one or more domains are so exceptional or developmentally advanced that they require special provisions to meet their educational programming needs. Gifted children are hereafter referred to as gifted students. Children under five who are gifted may also be provided with early childhood special educational services. Gifted students include gifted students with disabilities (i.e. twice exceptional) and students with exceptional abilities or potential from all socio-economic, ethnic, and cultural populations. Gifted students are capable of high performance, exceptional production, or exceptional learning behavior by virtue of any or a combination of the following areas of giftedness.
