To best meet the diverse needs of the Gifted and Talented students at Horace Mann School, service is provided in a number of different formats--The Renaissance Program, The Math Enrichment Group, The Inquiry Group, Independent Student Projects and more.
In our English Language Learners program students in kindergarten through sixth grade are taught speaking, reading, listening, and writing skills in English to help them access the mainstream classroom in curriculum.
Our Phy Ed Program concentrates on developing an understanding of motor skills and physical fitness.
Science & Technology is taught with an inquiry approach to learning. Through hands-on, minds-on experiments students explore scientific concepts and scientific processes. Projects completed in the computer lab focus on topics that students are studying in science or in their classroom.
Instrumental Music The Horace Mann School Instrumental Music program is available to all the 5th
& 6th graders. First year students attend one 30 minute like-instrument
group lesson per week and one 50 minute large group rehearsal after winter
break. Second year students attend one 30 minute small ensemble lesson per week
and also participate in the full band after winter break. The band typically
performs 2 concerts in the spring; one during the school day for the students
and an evening concert in another location. Additional performing opportunities
may be available for our second year members.
