Gifted Services by School

Overview of site-based offerings

Each school in Poudre School District has different strengths and programs based on the curriculum and resources available at the school. Though PSD does not have a designated gifted magnet school, each site is encouraged to offer rigorous coursework for advanced learners. Click on the GT Services PDF link for each school below to learn more about the site-based gifted services at that school.  

*Each school has a gifted site coordinator, who coordinates identification efforts and is a liaison between the district gifted office and the school site. GT site coordinators (listed below with links to their email) have the most current information about gifted identification and services available at their school.
