To the <strong>Pennsbury</strong> <strong>School</strong> <strong>District</strong>:<br />

March 2013<br />

The K-8 <strong>Gifted</strong> <strong>Program</strong> <strong>Quality</strong> <strong>Review</strong> Team would like to thank and commend those who<br />

participated in the <strong>Pennsbury</strong> <strong>School</strong> <strong>District</strong> review process. We greatly appreciate the positive<br />

and professional attitude displayed by school staff and administration.<br />

The visiting team found the administration, teachers, staff, students and parents to be most<br />

cooperative and willing to discuss all aspects of <strong>Pennsbury</strong>’s gifted programs. Graciousness,<br />

openness and hospitality were evident throughout the three-day visit, making our jobs much<br />

easier and allowing us to collect useful information.<br />

Over the course of one hundred and nineteen individual and group interviews and classroom<br />

observations, the team collected information in a variety of areas and provided detailed answers<br />

to specific questions, along with overall program strengths, needs and recommendations. Team<br />

members identified program needs and made practical recommendations by applying their<br />

experience in the field to the information available, realizing that local conditions will determine<br />

local action.<br />

Team members were pleased to have had the experiences offered by this process. We wish you<br />

continued success in what is probably the most significant activity for today and tomorrow –<br />

educating our children.<br />
