Mission Statement

Duncan Public Schools believes that there are gifted students whose intellectual capacity, rate of learning, and potential for creative contributions demand experiences different from, but connected to the regular curriculum.  These students exhibit high performance, or the potential to achieve in intellectual, creative, or artistic areas; possess strong leadership capacity; or excel in specific academic fields.  It is essential to provide diverse, appropriate, and ongoing learning experiences and environments that incorporate the academic psychological, and social needs of students.  It is our responsibility to provide students with educational opportunities that teach, challenge, and expand their knowledge, while simultaneously developing independent, self-directed learners who continuously generate questions, analyze, synthesize, and evaluate information and ideas.
