The Edgewater School District offers enrichment services for students in Grades Kindergarten to Six. The regulations (N.J.A.C. 6A:8-3.1) define gifted and talented students as: those students who possess or demonstrate high levels of ability, in one or more content areas, when compared to their chronological peers in the local district and who require modification of their educational program if they are to achieve in accordance with their capabilities.
The goal of the Edgewater School District’s enrichment program is to provide a differentiated, challenging academic environment for students with advanced learning abilities. Our instructional methods and materials are designed to develop thinking processes that enhance independent study and personal effectiveness.
