Overview
MISD is committed to an educational program of options
that recognize the unique value, needs and talents of each student.
Instructional programs for the gifted and talented are an integral part
of this commitment. Under the guidance of the MISD, local gifted and
talented districts will differentiate instruction pre K-12,
and offer a continuum of services designed to encourage maximum
development of every student's potential.
Those seeking information about gifted
children and the various methods that would best serve their unique
needs should have a representative description of the key ideas about
identifying and serving the gifted. The Macomb Intermediate School
District's gifted and talented website
addresses this need by serving as a concise, clear reference tool for
individuals who are interested in the welfare of gifted children. To
this end, the website offers information that:
- educates individuals about identifying characteristics of gifted
children
- describes the screening process
- defines common terms associated with
gifted and talented
- recommends educational practices for
gifted students
- provides strategic assistance to
parents of a gifted child
- informs individuals about books,
journals, national and regional organizations, conferences, community resources, and
other websites
