SCHOOL PROGRAMS



Twin Lakes takes great pride in the many outstanding programs available to our students.

We offer a rich and engaging program for our identified GATE students and other Advanced Learners that includes depth and breadth throughout the entire educational experience; not only the classroom experience, but also our supplemental GATE program, and the many performing arts opportunities. By providing differentiated instruction for our GATE students, we have a large percentage of students qualifying for the middle schools High Achiever and Advanced Placement programs.

Students engage in creative expression in the fine arts through our art, instrumental and vocal music specialists’ programs, as well as our classroom teachers’ programs. Opportunities include a yearlong band and choir program, a Patriotic play, the Nutcracker, and the Rock n Roll show. We also participate in the art docent program.

Our school has one P.E. specialist who offers outstanding instruction and opportunities such as Jump Rope for Heart and Field Day.

Twin Lakes has a media center, staffed by a media technician that is adjacent to one of our two technology centers. We employ a technology specialist, and each classroom has teacher and student workstations.

On-going student programs include the Student Council, cross grade buddy program, Author Day, Science Fair, Wax Museum, Talent Show, Book Fair, Spelling Bee, and our Travel Fair.

We have an on-site Discovery Club that offers a before and after school child care/enrichment program serving children in Kindergarten through sixth grade.
