NCES Gifted & Talented
About our Newton Collins Elementary Gifted and Talented Classes
The goal of our Gifted and Talented classes is to create a safe, supportive community where our students can learn and grow.
GT students meet with other students in their same age group twice a week to explore their interests and work together. Every class begins with a family meeting. Afterward, students work on team games and projects or individual projects. All students' projects are guided by their individual interests. In addition, all students have a class job that they complete during class.
Our librarian, Amy Gonzalez, teaches all our GT classes. She actively works to bring resources to students to help them learn and grow to their full potential.
Hayley Wolff is our GT Coordinator. She shares information about our GT program with the community, ensures all our teachers are GT certified, and tests students for admittance to our GT program.
