SEQUIM — Nominations of Sequim students for the Highly Capable Program are due by the close of business Thursday.
Students nominated for the program are then identified as eligible through district procedures, officials said, adding that the procedures conform to state guidelines and are consistent with those used by other Washington school districts.
Students previously identified will continue to receive services.
Nomination forms are available at each school and online at the district website at www.sequim.k12.wa.us.
Nominations received after Thursday will not be considered.
HiCap students — also referred to as gifted students — perform or show potential to perform at remarkably high levels of accomplishment when compared with other students of the same age, experience or background, the district said.
These students may demonstrate exceptionally high intellectual ability, memory, creativity, curiosity and/or leadership ability.
Questions can be directed to Margaret Whitley, HiCap program coordinator, at 360-582-3367 or mwhitley@sequim.k12.wa.us.
