About Our SchoolAbout Our School The Advanced Studies Magnet program works

with key community partners to provide middle

school students with a unique and personalized

learning experience. The program offers a rigorous

and expanded curriculum in all content areas. By the

end of the eighth grade, the Advanced Studies student

can earn a total of 5.5 high school credits.

The Advanced Studies curriculum deepens students’

knowledge of academic subjects allowing them to

exceed state and local achievement standards. All

subjects are taught with emphases on inquiry and

exploration. The ―school within a school‖ format

provides small teacher teams and highly-qualified

teachers that are trained for gifted education.

Of the 50 slots available to incoming sixth grade

students each year, 25 are available to candidates

from the current Southwest attendance zone provided

that admission criteria are met.

Haut Gap is pleased to currently be a technology-

infused iPad Pilot School.
