Gifted and Talented Resources for the Arts
The Rockford Public Schools District #205 through its current programming in the arts is able to meet the needs of many. For students who exhibit skills and knowledge in the arts slightly beyond grade level, there are many opportunities to help build a program that meets the students’ needs. The Creative and Performing Arts (CAPA) program provides in-depth arts opportunities at two sites- Ellis Academy for the Arts and Auburn High School. Click on the school site for additional information about the CAPA programs.
Suggestions to assist students in the arts include:
*Enrichment activities
*Arts classwork integrated into other content areas
*Cluster or flexible grouping
*Independent study (genre, composer/artist, and/or career studies)
*Mentoring
*Acceleration
*Differentiation of instruction
Many students will thrive in nurturing educational environments utilizing these strategies. Here are additional resources to investigate and consider for use with students.
