Welcome to Our School!

KING JR. ELEMENTARY IS A SCHOOL
FOR ADVANCED STUDIES SAS

Go, Doves!

Martin Luther King Jr. Elementary differentiates the instructional needs of gifted/talented students per current legislation (AB2313).

The instructional program for gifted students are planned and organized as an integrated, differentiated learning experience throughout the regular school day, and "may be augmented and supplemented with other differentiated activities related to the core curriculum."

• Teachers of gifted/talented students “differentiate” the core curriculum through various means, including:
  • flexible groupings, 
  • acceleration of content, 
  • independent study, tiered assignments, 
  • interest centers, learning centers, 
  • compacting in student’s area of strength, mentorships, adjusting questions, and use of above-grade-level resources.
