San Leandro Unified School District addresses Gifted and Talented Education (GATE) programming for eligible students in the elementary and secondary settings using instruction designed to meet the academic, social and emotional needs of gifted students. SLUSD believes in providing the necessary challenges for gifted students to reach their full potential, which often extends beyond advanced levels of district and state standards. Across our school sites, students are offered acceleration, enrichment and challenge through an instructional program based on California State recommended program standards for gifted students.
