Schoolwide Enrichment Teams
Schools may have a Schoolwide Enrichment Team, or this work may be supported by other school-based parent organizations. These teams may consist of the principal, teachers, QUEST teacher and parent representatives and will help assess student interest, plan enrichment opportunities for all children during and after school, and locate human resources and mentors for the entire school.
Specific Curriculum Enrichment
Techniques, strategies and appropriate materials to enrich and enhance all curricular areas will be provided.
Programs such as Odyssey of the Mind, CT History Day, or Lego Robotics may be offered providing an optional dimension to the program opportunities.
School and Community

Mentors and Internships
Locate mentors for students and create opportunities for internships on an individual or as needed basis.
