Advanced Kindergarten Classrooms

DPS offers classrooms in seven elementary schools that are specifically designed for academically advanced kindergarten students.  These classrooms provide a curriculum that enriches, expands and accelerates state and district kindergarten standards according to student academic readiness and assessed curriculum mastery.  The Advanced Kindergarten Program is a part of the full-day Tuition Based Kindergarten Program.  Financial assistance is available for tuition and for the $50 screening and the $50 application fees.  Transportation is not provided. 

Students must apply and qualify based on district assessments. The Advanced Kindergarten application is available on the Gifted and Talented Education Department home page, http://gt.dpsk12.org. Applications are due in December for the following school year.  Applications continue to be accepted if spaces are available in the program.  Acceptance to the Advanced Kindergarten Program is a one-year placement.
