Advanced Learning Plans (ALP's)
Identified gifted students will manage his/her own Advanced Learning Plan by creating a SMART goal for identified areas of strength as well as an affective (social/emotional) goal.
The ALP is a collaborative effort between the parents, student and school. Parent and student participation in the ALP process is required by state law.
The ALP is a working document that is formally reviewed at least once a year (winter) and revised as needed. It is housed online in Naviance and accessible for students, parents, and teachers to review at any time using Google Classroom and/or Naviance.
