The enrichment
program creates a learning environment that provides challenging,
creative, project oriented instruction to our student population. It
places a premium on the development of higher order thinking skills and
the authentic application of these skills in creative and productive
situations. This model utilizes three types of enrichment activities:
Type 1: general exploratory activities, Type 2: group learning
activities, and Type 3: students’ self-selected, first-hand
investigations into real problems. Through this three-fold approach,
all students have the opportunity to benefit from enrichment.
