CUSD GATE Program

Due to the current fiscal crisis, on April 13, 2009, the Capistrano Unified School District (CUSD) Board voted to modify the Gifted and Talented Education Program. Although funding for the GATE program will be limited, a differentiated curriculum for GATE students will still be offered at each school site. 

CUSD Differentiated Curriculum for GATE Students:

  • Elementary School: GATE students will be cluster grouped with other GATE identified students in the regular classroom setting.
  • Middle School: GATE students will be placed in accelerated language arts and social science classes. GATE students may also placed in accelerated mathematics and science classes if they meet the District’s math and science placement criteria. For the specific criteria for accelerated math and science classes, please contact your child's academic advisor at his/her middle school.
  • High School: GATE students will be placed in accelerated, Advanced Placement (AP), and/or International Baccalaureate (IB) classes if they meet the District’s placement criteria for those classes. For the specific criteria for accelerated, AP and/or IB classes, please contact your child's academic advisor at his/her high school.
