Gifted

Welcome

The Selinsgrove Area School District’s vision is committed to providing a quality education for all learners. The District recognizes that gifted learners are a population with educational requirements in need of student centered learning that encourages critical thinking, problem solving, and enrichment in areas of student strengths.

The gifted student’s ability for academic achievement beyond their same-age peers requires specially designed services. A gifted learner may require a differentiated pace of instruction, a differentiated depth and breadth of instruction, and/or a differentiated educational focus based upon interests or skills. We acknowledge that gifted learners require rigor, seek challenge, prefer choice, and enjoy open-ended activities. 

We also realize that the level of success that our gifted learners attain is linked to the relationships forged between the students’ parents and school district personnel.  

The Selinsgrove Area School District is committed to providing a school environment that fosters achievement and the realization of each student’s potential. 

If you believe your child may be in need of gifted services you may request through your building’s administrator that your child be screened or evaluated for gifted education.
