Academically gifted children have special needs, needs that are different from those of other students. Research has shown that gifted students may not be sufficiently challenged in traditional schools and so often do not achieve their full potential there.

At the Cincinnati Gifted Academy, gifted students will blossom in a rigorous environment that is flexible enough to meet the specific learning needs of academically gifted students.

Key features:

  • Students will be encouraged to learn both independently and as members of project-based teams.

  • Stimulating learning and leadership development.

  • Broader community resources will be used as learning labs, such as museums, natural settings and cutting-edge workplaces.

  • Some of the best teachers in the region will challenge students to reach their full learning potential through innovative hands-on lessons.

  • To develop the “whole child,” education will be complemented by instruction in pre-Latin and arts enrichment.

Teachers will design learning experiences to meet the needs of gifted children in all areas — Academic Challenge, Personal Growth and Contribution to Society.

Parent involvement in school activities and enrichment opportunities is welcomed and encouraged.
