Gifted students need advanced and complex content that is paced and sequenced to respond to their intellectual curiosity, exceptional problem-solving abilities, and rapid acquisition and mastery of information.

The goal of PWCS' gifted education and talent development services is to develop students’ advanced skills in

• Critical thinking
• Creative thinking
• Collaboration
• Communication
• Conceptual thinking

to encourage and enable students to become self-directed life-long learners. The program provides instructional time to work with same-age peers, intellectual and academic peers, and independently.
