Gifted testing in St. Lucie Public Schools

Elementary gifted students (K-5) either attend a gifted resource class for part of the week at set school sites, or a full-time self-contained gifted class; there is one full-time program per zone, and the district has three zones. Children at private schools are evaluated by the district; their parents ask their school principal about referral.
