      Philosophy

      香港六合彩资料 Gifted provides enriched academic opportunities for gifted and talented students who demonstrate exceptional capabilities that require services beyond the scope of the regular classroom curriculum.  In Deer Valley, we recognize that giftedness exists across all cultures and socioeconomic levels and must be cultivated in order to grow. 

      Identification of Giftedness

       

      In Arizona

       

      A student who scores at or above the ninety-seventh percentile, based upon national norms, on a test adopted by the State School Board, on one or more of the following areas: verbal reasoning, quantitative reasoning, and/or non-verbal reasoning is considered eligible for gifted services.

       

      At Sonoran Foothills

       

      We place students scoring in the 94th percentile and up.  The curriculum for gifted students is inclusive of many theories and strategies in order to meet the needs of the diverse learner. See below for our continuum of services.
