Gifted and Talented students exist in all ethnic, geographic, and socioeconomic groups and they represent a valuable resource in New Kent County Schools. These students possess talents and abilities differing from those of their peers to such a degree that differentiated educational provisions must be made so to encourage their development. It is the intent of the New Kent County School division to provide a differentiated program to foster and to develop the talents of these students through their regular classes and/or means of pull-out classes .
