Program Highlights

Edison Regional Gifted Center is committed to serving its 265 gifted students, kindergarten through eighth grade, with a fully articulated, differentiated curriculum that is fast-paced, enriched, and accelerated.
 
Each year the Office of Academic Enhancement selects students qualified for the kindergarten and other program vacancies, using test scores and Chicago's tier system. Students in grades K-4 receive all core subject instruction from their homeroom teacher. Students in grades 5-8 follow a traditional middle school schedule with different teachers providing instruction in each of the core content areas.
