This page is a major undertaking in response to parent requests for information on school programs for gifted children across Canada.  Please send us any information you have about your local school system to add to the data base.  As school staff change influences programs, we are including District information only unless the District have streamed schools or programs for gifted children.

British Columbia    Where the District name does not resemble the closest major town name, the town names are cross referenced.  Most school districts use www.sd**.bc.ca for their website where ** is the District #.   Some major urban school districts have unusual URL's

Congratulations  to School District #23, Central Okanagan who have a home page for the gifted program and to North Okanagan #83 Who have a complete description of their gifted services under the student services section.   The rest of you, please offer similar listings!
