Gifted

Norwood City School District believes in the appropriate education of all its students.  Several policies for the advancement of students exist and are followed by the staff at Norwood.  These policies include gifted identification, acceleration, early entrance to school, as well as early graduation.  

While gifted services are not mandated in Ohio, the Norwood City School District provides quality education for all students. Through a menu of opportunities, advanced students may qualify and participate in services designed to meet their unique learning needs. Our gifted education handbook provides an overview of Norwood's menu of services and criteria for acceptance. Elementary age students may receive enrichment within the regular classroom and/or through small group seminars in reading, writing and math. ATP services are available for students in grades 3-8. Additional secondary opportunities include AP and honors courses, dual credit, and College Credit Plus.
