Milpitas Unified School District (MUSD) provides a flexible system of options that deliver a continuum of appropriate curricular and instructional experiences to its identified Gifted and Talented Education (GATE) students. Each site develops a school plan that integrates the needs of the GATE students into its overall educational program.
MUSD offers a variety of program modifications that are particularly designed to meet the needs of gifted and talented students. Instructional strategies accommodate different learning styles, support collaboration, and promote self-reflection. Differentiation of course content is achieved through added depth, complexity, novelty, or acceleration of pace. Interdisciplinary, student-centered curriculum featuring hands-on, collaborative learning activities with real-world applications increase the power and relevance of learning for students.
