The Ventnor City Schools begins the GT program in grades K-2 with a push in model that allows for the GT teacher to observe and offer enrichment activities to the students. Grades 3 and 4 have a pull-out GT program that enhances content areas and allows for students to explore topics of interest. Grades 5-8 GT students participate in accelerated learning in all grades through acceleration in Mathematics and ELA. In addition, our grade eight students participate in Algebra 1 and Spanish 1. The District Curriculum provides suggestions for all content areas to enrich all GT students in the program across all subjects. Suggestions for enrichment of our GT students is available in the district approved curriculum for students. Professional development for teachers is held on-going to ensure that all students’ needs are met.
