Gifted Programs
Peak (Personalized Enrichment for the Advancement of Knowledge)
Liberty Public Schools is committed to an educational program that recognizes the unique value, needs and talents of each individual student. We further believe that each student, regardless of race, creed, intellect, or socioeconomic status, has a right to opportunities that will develop his/ her potential to the fullest extent. The mission of Liberty’s program for gifted students is to create a positive environment in which each student has the opportunity to develop higher level critical and creative thinking skills, participate in differentiated exploratory activities based on individual needs and interests and enhance a healthy self-concept in order to become a self-directed learner who fully appreciates and utilizes personal potential.
PEAK Open House
PEAK parents and students viewed topic study projects. Students selected independent topics to research. Students completed projects based on the Bloom's Level of Taxonomy. Each level of Bloom's focuses on a level of thinking: remembering, understanding, applying, analyzing, evaluating and creating.
