Course Selection for GT Students
Students identified as gifted and talented are expected to enroll in advanced-level courses in their area of strength. During course selection, students and their parent/guardian will choose classes for the upcoming school year and complete the Bowie Course Contract.

  • If a student does not register for an advanced-level course in their identified area of talent, the parent/guardian signature on the Course Contract will serve as either:

    • Furlough – for the first year the student does not enroll in an advanced course, or

    • Exit – if the student does not enroll in an advanced course for a second year in that area.
