(KLZA)-- Falls City School Superintendent Tim Heckenlively reported during last weeks Board meeting that changes are going to be made to the High Ability Learner program in the 2023-24 school year.

Instead of having a single person in School District 56, there will now be a coordinator at South School, Middle School and the High School.

The purpose is to allow the district to offer more programming for the High Ability Learning students and provide it throughout the year.

Curriculum /Director Mehghan Robeson will coordinate the identification process which is a combination of state assessment scores and district level assessments.

Students will be identified in the Spring of each year and letters will be sent out over the summer informing parents and students of their identification, and the district will then have High Ability Learner activities ready to begin in the Fall.
