BROWNWOOD ISD

District of Choice

Gifted and Talented

Program Mission Statement

It is the intention of Brownwood ISD to provide a program of quality, equity, and accountability for academically talented students in compliance with state and local requirements.

The gifted/talented program for Brownwood ISD is designed to meet the needs of those children who are identified as having superior intellectual abilities or potential for outstanding academic achievement. It is acknowledged at the onset that these children are found in all races, socioeconomic groups, and at all levels of society. It is important to meet these students’ special needs and prepare these students to deal with the challenges of a rapidly changing society. It shall be the mission of the Brownwood ISD to provide opportunity within the educational program for each individual to develop to the fullest of his/her capacity.

We strive to facilitate partnerships with parents and our community in order to provide a comprehensive G/T program that addresses the intellectual and learning needs of our students.

This program will be implemented on all campuses in the district. Identified students are served in grades K-5 through classroom teachers and grades 6-12 will participate in advanced studies and/or differentiated instruction.

The district provides an array of learning opportunities for gifted/talented students in kindergarten through grade 12.  

Opportunities for differentiated instruction for students include but are not limited to:

  1. Instructional and organizational patterns that enable identified students to work together as a group, to work with other students, and to work independently.
  2. A continuum of learning experiences that will lead to the development of advanced-level products and performances.
  3. In-school, and when possible, out-of-school options relevant to the student’s area of strength that are available during the school year.
