REACH / GIFTED SERVICES

Hudson meets the diverse needs and abilities of students through curriculum differentiation. For
identified gifted students, formal gifted services begin in grade 3, and are offered using a tiered service
model.

Tier I services superior cognitive gifted learners with a Cognitive Skills Index (CSI) of 137+ OR a CSI of
132-136 and a gifted reading identification (95th percentile or higher). These students receive direct
services in Reading/Language Arts from a Gifted Intervention Specialist (GIS) in grades 3-8. This teacher
serves as the teacher of record for reading in grades 3-5 and as the English teacher for these students in
grades 6-8. Tier II services superior cognitive gifted learners with a CSI of 128-131 OR a CSI of 132-136
but no gifted reading identification. These students are clustered together in grades 3-8 with teachers who
receive ongoing professional development on the social-emotional and academic needs of gifted learners.
This is not a pull-out service.

Tier III services gifted learners who are identified in reading and/or math (95th percentile or higher), but
do not have a superior cognitive identification. These students are also clustered together in grades 3-8
with teachers who receive ongoing professional development on the social-emotional and academic needs
of gifted learners. This is not a pull-out service.
