“EAGLE” is our acronym for the essential components of a fully developed education program for gifted and talented young people. When we think of an eagle, we think of strength, stamina, courage, freedom, and self-discovery. At EAGLE School we also think of…

Exemplary Curriculum

The EAGLE curriculum stresses the inter-relatedness of all knowledge, the value of inquiry, and the importance of critical thinking. Academic rigor is balanced with creativity, and the striving for excellence with an emphasis on the process of learning.

Accelerated Content

Students are allowed to accelerate through subjects without unnecessary repetition or drill. This enables them to explore those subjects at a deeper level, to research new areas of interest, or to cultivate other skills and talents.

Guidance and Counseling

Gifted students have unique intellectual, social, and emotional needs during various stages of their development. Counselors are on staff to assist student growth across several domains, supporting their desire for academic achievement, social interaction, emotional understanding, and effective communication.

Latitude in Teaching Strategies, Learning Styles, and Environment

EAGLE teachers have the ability to thoughtfully and creatively address individual differences and adapt teaching strategies to nurture each child’s unique learning style. EAGLE School’s open environment and small class size allow maximum flexibility. Students have gradually increasing opportunities to plan, implement, and evaluate their own learning, thus enhancing their skill and motivation to become independent learners.
