Gifted students thrive in an environment that allows for creative expression of their ideas with proper focus on academic rigor. At McNeal Elementary School we are lucky to have several gifted certified teachers on staff, including 2-3 per grade level team, as well as our Fine Arts Team.

Gifted students in grades 2-5 also have the opportunity to participate in the Innovative Technology Academy (ITA), which will focus on Digital Tool Literacy.

For more information, please reach out to our gifted endorsed and ITA teacher, Ms. Berninger via email at berninga@manateeschools.net.
