The gifted and talented program has
existed in Mayville for many years.
Students involved in the program have been identified as gifted
and
talented in one of five areas. The five areas are: General
Intellectual, Specific Academic, Leadership, Creativity, and Visual
and
Performing Arts.
Identification takes place in grades
3-12. Once a student is identified
the student's classroom teacher and GT coordinator meet to discuss
how
to best meet that student's needs. Curriculum may be compacted,
enrichment activities may be given, the student may be accelerated
in a
certain subject area, or participate in a small group with other
students who are of higher-ability. The program is designed to
meet
students needs and provide them with a challenge.
Mayville also works with five other
districts in Dodge County to provide
a network for GT coordinators. This group also hosts a series
of
special days for GT students.
