Gifted and Talented
Dunbar Magnet Middle School is the Little Rock School District’s only school designated specifically for gifted and talented. Dunbar’s Gifted and Talented (GT) program encompasses breadth and depth in core content areas while stressing creative thinking, risk-talking, curiosity, imagination, and interpersonal relations. Students at Dunbar, who have undergone a rigorous battery of diverse assessments and have been identified as GT, are able to enroll in specialized classes taught by highly qualified instructors who have received additional graduate hours in meeting the needs of advanced learners. Gifted and Talented students engage once a month in GT Exploration meetings. The GT Exploration meetings enhance self-awareness, goals-setting, and affective needs. All Dunbar GT students who submit a request to enroll in Little Rock Central High School’s GT Program will use the portal https://schoolchoice.lrsd.org for consideration. Dunbar is a direct feeder into Little Rock Central High School.
