CLE 4th Grade Inclusion
Fourth grade will lead our transition to an inclusion classroom model this year. Gifted students enrolled in fourth grade at CLE will stay upstairs and receive their Gifted services from their regular classroom teachers. Ms. Hardage and Mrs. Chakraborty will be our two Gifted inclusion teachers. Mrs. Medley will provide support to all Gifted inclusion students. All other grades and the fourth grade students from our feeder schools will attend Gifted in a pull-out setting as in previous years.
Welcome back, Mr. Haas!
Mr. Haas will be returning to Gifted this year to work alongside Mrs. Medley. He cannot wait to see all of his old--and new--students. Mr. Haas will be working with all Gifted students except for the students in the inclusion classroom.
