Get a Clue about CLUE
CLUE (Creative Learning in a Unique Environment) is a program for intellectually gifted and academically talented students. The program is designed to help students develop higher levels of thinking using the strategies of creative thinking, brainstorming, research, group dynamics , group discussion, introspection, creative problem solving, brainteasers, critique, and independent projects. Our curriculum is developed by CLUE teachers to meet the emotional and intellectual needs of the students. Each unit is organized into a mini-study (grades 4-6) or M.E.S.S. (Mind Explosive Super Study - grades K-3). Although elementary CLUE students do not receive grades in CLUE, students' progress is continually evaluated by teachers, parents, and the students themselves.
