Classroom: Elementary students are cluster grouped the year following their gifted identification. Students receive differentiated instruction provided by their classroom teacher and supported through resource services from the Gifted Resource Teacher assigned to their school. Gifted Resource Teachers will also conduct whole class response lessons in all K-2 classrooms to provide opportunities for all students to think critically and creatively while ensuring that a level of enrichment service is offered to each student.

Instruction with GRT: Elementary Gifted Resource Teachers (GRTs) are itinerant teachers serving and supporting two or three elementary schools each week. GRTs provide enrichment units and activities for identified students throughout the school year following our Henrico County Gifted Curriculum Overview. Instructional support is designed to be flexible and may crossover between pull out, push in, or check in services each quarter.

4th and 5th Grade School/Zone Based Center Classrooms: Fourth and fifth grade students who have been identified in both English/Language Arts and Mathematics may participate in either a School Based Center Class or in a Zone Based Center Class. To locate the specific centers, click this link. 

*Instruction and enrichment is provided by the zone/center based teachers with consultative support provided by the Elementary Gifted Resource Teacher.

Frequency: Middle school gifted elective services will follow the master schedule.
