Gifted Courses

Our gifted courses permit academically talented students to work online, at their own pace, on a challenging array of subjects, including mathematics, science, language arts, foreign languages, and social studies. Students can take charge of their learning with self-paced lessons, pre-tests, and other activities that allow them to choose topics to study in more depth. Courses include both faculty- and computer-evaluated lessons.

Hints for Selecting Courses for gifted or academically talented students

MU High has a wide array of courses with unique topics—including some designated for gifted students. Independent study provides gifted students an opportunity to take charge of their learning by selecting high interest courses and self-pacing their lessons. Consider the following hints when selecting a course.

• Choose a course that sounds interesting.
• Examine the “Grade Placement Recommendations.”
• Preview a lesson in the course from our web site.
• Access the preview via the course description.
• Find a copy of the book(s) used in the course.

These grade placement recommendations are suggestions only. When selecting a course for a student, please also take into account the student’s maturity level, academic preparedness, and interest level in the subject.
