Cotter Public Schools Gifted and talented coordinator/teacher offers monthly enrichment classes for Kindergarten through 2nd grade. The classroom teacher gives weekly enrichment lessons to cultivate students' creativity and critical thinking. Identified students in grades 3-6 receive 150 minutes a week of pull out GT services.

Cotter High School offers a unique experience for all 7-12th grade gifted and talented students. Students in grades 7-8 and 9-12 have the opportunity to take the GT Seminar, which meets daily. In GT Seminar, students are given the choice of a research project, community service project, or a competition. This provides our gifted and talented students with the time to be around one another for academic and social growth.

All gifted and talented students are differentiated for once a quarter in their content area classes. This differentiation is monitored and documented through our GT Coordinator.
