Elementary GATE (Gifted and Talented Education)

GATE programs are available at every elementary school and are designed to service students who consistently perform above grade level on math and/or reading skills, as well as meet multiple criteria for placement in the program. Students are typically performing above the 90th percentile on MAP. Measures of aptitude and/or performance and potential are utilized during the screening and the identification processes.  GATE programs are available at all WCPS primary and elementary schools and serve students through creative and critical thinking training, project-based instruction, shared inquiry and STEM-based activities.
