The Springboro Schools Gifted Education program provides a rigorous, student-centered environment tailored to the unique intellectual, creative, and socio-emotional needs of gifted learners. The program empowers students to think critically, collaborate on complex problems, take academic risks, and set actionable goals to become self-directed, lifelong learners.
Within the Gifted Education program, students:
- Are challenged, take risks, problem-solve, and learn at their individual levels while being with other students who are like them.
- Develop critical and creative thinking skills, improve their organizational skills, and grow in personal responsibility and self-confidence as learners.
- Develop a desire for excellence, a sense of individual worth, and a responsibility to self and to society.
- Work in groups, using higher level thinking skills, and are willing to share ideas and listen to and incorporate others’ ideas into the group’s solution.
- Formulate a goal, either personal or academic, and develop an action plan to achieve it.
