Special Services & Gifted Program

Lorem Ipsum Dolor

Westminster is committed to meeting the educational needs of families with students who have a diagnosed disability that impacts learning through our Pathways program. Additionally, we support the educational, spiritual, and social-emotional needs of our gifted students through our Gifted program.

Pathways

The Pathways program offers limited remedial work in reading and writing and primarily runs parallel to and supports the existing curriculum by providing accommodations for and adaptations to each student’s classes. Our goal is to offer tools and strategies to utilize in the classroom and help students understand their learning profile to compensate and advocate according to their needs and become successful learners for life.

Through Pathways, we provide four methods of both accommodation and modification of classroom curricula depending on the level of support needed.

Gifted

Gifted teachers help each student understand and embrace their learning profile while confidently seeking and managing academic coursework. Through compacted, accelerated curriculum and enrichment opportunities, we will enhance your student’s academic potential and success.

Gifted Defined

Westminster has considered the guidelines of the National Association of Gifted Children (NAGC) in developing gifted services and identifying gifted learners. Gifted students are those who demonstrate outstanding levels of aptitude (defined as an exceptional ability to reason and learn) or competence (documented performance or achievement in 10 percent or rarer) in one or more academic domains. “What is Giftedness?” (NAGC, 2015)

Our gifted program focuses on exceptional ability or potential in the academic domains of humanities, mathematics, and science.
