At Prairie Wind Elementary, our GATE (Gifted and Talented Education) program is designed to challenge and inspire high-ability learners through engaging, hands-on learning experiences that promote creativity, problem-solving, and critical thinking.

Led by Mr. Andrew Nabity, our GATE teacher, the program provides enriched opportunities both in and out of the classroom. Students in GATE participate in advanced academic tasks, collaborative projects, and exploratory activities tailored to their interests and strengths. Whether they're designing inventions, diving deep into research, or tackling logic challenges, GATE students are encouraged to think big and push the boundaries of their learning.

The program also emphasizes social and emotional growth, helping gifted learners build confidence, resilience, and strong communication skills. At Prairie Wind, we believe every student deserves to be challenged and supported—and our GATE program plays a vital role in helping students soar.
