The NEISD Gifted and Talented program provides a qualitatively  differentiated program that is advanced, complex, and in-depth.  Its purpose is to facilitate the optimal development of each student's intellectual and creative gifts and talents.

Ms. Ellis's Web Page

"I've always known I was gifted, which is not the easiest thing in the world for a person to know, because you're not responsible for your gift, only for what you do with it."

--Hazel Scott (1920-1981), pianist,
   singer, writer
