School Description
Cory is a magnet site for highly gifted children grades 1st-5th, students who have demonstrated extraordinary academic achievement or abilities and intellectual potential found in the top one percent of the national student population. These “identified” children are a part of the mix of students at Cory; they are not put in self-contained classrooms. Our “combined” classrooms are what make Cory unique and what makes our classrooms a wonderful mixture of learners. Every Cory teacher has been trained in highly gifted education. Our highly gifted program relies on the practice of differentiated instruction to meet individual learning requirements.

Goals
- The addition of natural elements and sculptural elements.
- The addition of interactive play areas which will encourage learning through creative play.
