Advanced Learning Plans in Jeffco
The Advanced Learning Plan (ALP) is a legal document outlining programming for identified gifted students and guides educational planning and decision-making. An ALP is developed for every gifted student according to the student’s determined areas of giftedness, interests, and instructional and affective needs. The ALP is created after a student is formally identified as gifted. Learn about GT identification in Jeffco to begin this referral process for a student.
The student's ALP should map out what students hope to learn and accomplish in their area of strength. When students become independent learners and self-advocates they will:
- Take control of their learning and improve their education.
- Deepen understanding of their learning style and become strength-based learners.
- Acquire learning skills that apply to learning situations in life.
- Will develop a greater sense of their abilities.
Families and students in grades 6-12 may view ALPs in Student Insights.
