Enrichment Programs
Deer Creek Elementary takes pride in our
enrichment program designed for all students. Extended
opportunities are specifically structured for grades third
through fifth. An expressions class has been added this year
for our first through third grade students. Patricia Johnson
and Debbie Vaughn coordinate and oversee the gifted program
and enrichment opportunities. This pullout program along
with its many extensions is only enhanced by parental
involvement. The program has a three-part
focus:
-
To provide and coordinate enrichment
opportunities for ALL Deer Creek Elementary students.
-
To provide teachers with materials that
will challenge all students in problem-solving and
critical thinking.
-
To provide special pull out
opportunities for students identified for the gifted
program.
