Booksin Elementary


Gate Program

Gate services are provided by teachers in regular classrooms. Differentiated lessons and activities insure that needs of all students are met.  Booksin’s library has many publications dealing with Gate student needs available for parent/teacher checkout.  The Gate Advisory Committee (GAC), made up of administrators, teachers, and parents, meets periodically to plan parent education evenings and other activities as needed.  Booksin parents also sponsor after school and weekend day field trips for Gate identified students. 

More information on Gate may be obtained at the San Jose Unified District and California Association for the Gifted (CAG) websites.  CAG provides a great deal of information about conferences, publications, and resources dealing with the special needs of Gate students.
