Program Goals
  1. The Gifted Education Motivating Students Program (G.E.M.S.) students will develop a more positive self-concept so that they, as a gifted individual, can interact more effectively with gifted and non-gifted peers, adults, and society.
  2. The gifted students will develop to a greater degree their critical thinking skills and apply them to solve problems and create advanced products.
  3. The G.E.M.S. students will reinforce their self-directed skills through investigating advance, more complicated subject matter.
