About the gifted Program

Shiloh Middle School is fortunate to have at least twelve teachers who are certified to teach gifted program classes. Some of these teachers work only with gifted and honors students; some teach one or two gifted classes as well as regular and honors classes. At the middle school level, all four basic academic subjects, (math, language arts, social studies and science) are offered in enriched versions for gifted students. Students who qualify for the gifted education program are placed into these classes according to their abilities and schedule availability.
