The
WSWHE
BOCES
Gifted Education Resource
Center
is
committed
to
seeking
out
and
nurturing
gifts
and
talents
in
K-12
students.
We
promote
the
development
of
those
children
defined
by
NY
State
as
"children
with
outstanding
talent
who
perform
or
show
the
potential
for
performing
at
remarkably
high
levels
of
accomplishment
when
compared
with
others
of
their
age,
experience,
or
environment.
They
exhibit
high
performance
capability
in
intellectual,
creative,
and
/or
artistic
areas,
possess
unusual
leadership
capacity
or
excel
in
specific
academic
fields."
They
require
services
not
ordinarily
provided
by
schools.
BOCES offers a range of services to help
highly-able students, their teachers,
administrators and parents. The Gifted Education
Resource Center assists schools in developing
programs that are tailored to the specific needs
of their most advanced students. We offer training
to strengthen the differentiation skills of
classroom teachers so that they can provide a rich
learning experience for all levels of students. We
provide after school enrichment for over 2400
motivated students as well as a full range of
arts-in-education and exploratory enrichment. For
those students with extreme needs for enrichment,
whose reasoning abilities place them at least four
grades above grade level, BOCES provides a one day
per week Young Scholars program with an advanced
humanities and science curriculum.
