GATE Program (Gifted and Talented Education)
 The GATE program exists to provide
opportunities beyond the regular classroom experience for
students who have demonstrated particular gifts or talents, and
to help those students realize their potential.
Gifted and talented students are those
students who show evidence of high performing capabilities in
intellectual, creative, specific academic or leadership areas,
or ability in the performing or visual arts; and who require
services or activities not ordinarily provided by the school in
order to more fully develop such capabilities.
