Spectrum provides services for identified students in grades 6-8.  Spectrum is scheduled for a half block on a rotating day basis.  The program is designed to meet the needs of gifted learners with an emphasis on higher-level thinking skills, problem-solving, and decision-making.  The program provides students with opportunities for self-assessment and reflection on the demands and responsibilities of the gifted learner.

Here is a video overview of the Spectrum Program and the Eligibility Process from the Spectrum Supervisor, Mrs. Wendy King.  

Please contact Lisa Dolinich , the Spectrum Teacher at Trailside Middle School, with questions or to request a copy of the Permission To Evaluate form if your child attends Trailside.
