Philosophy
Gifted and Talented education is important for students and for the local and global community. Students who are challenged to maximize their potential build habits of success that lead to confidence and independence. This in turn prepares them to contribute positively to their local communities and to the larger global community (Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction).
The Blair-Taylor School District recognizes that all students have talents and strengths. Some students, however, possess talents to an exceptional degree. The district recognizes the right of these students to receive educational opportunities that will meet their educational needs. Therefore, differentiated programming and services shall be provided to develop the cognitive, creative, and affective talents of these students.
