Social and Emotional Support

Gifted children are so much more than grades and test scores!    KCMS GT Center teachers are experts in gifted education and work together as a team to support all students both academically and emotionally.   Center students participate in a GT advisement class where important social, emotional, and executive functioning skills are taught.  In addition, students in the center program have access to Lisa Fiess, the Gifted and Talented Social/Emotional Learning Counselor for ongoing support during their middle school years.  Navigating adolescence with the support of a specialized gifted counselor, who is available to work with parents, students, and outside providers, is a best practice and one of the benefits of being in a gifted center program.  At KCMS, we take pride in incorporating social/emotional learning into each day so that every student can become the best version of themselves!
