HIGHLY CAPABLE STUDENT PROGRAMS:
Highly Capable Student Programs in Tacoma Schools serve students who have an identified need for additional academic challenge. Students may be referred by parents, teachers, administrators, or community members. The referral form for testing for Highly Capable Student Programs (JAWS, SAIL, GATE) may be downloaded at: http://www.tacoma.wa.us/information/departments/challengehighlycapable/Pages/default.aspx.
It is also available in the office by request. Information about the Highly Capable Student Programs in Tacoma Schools can be found on the webpage or by calling 571-1120.

 **MESSAGE FROM NUTRITION SERVICES
Beginning January, 2012, Nutrition Services will offer a soy non-dairy beverage as a milk substitute in all school cafeterias. The soy beverage will be offered to students who have a dairy allergy if requested with a note from a parent, licensed physician and/or a recognized medical authority. This will replace our juice offering at lunch for students with a dairy allergy.  According to current USDA regulations we must offer a milk substitute. The soy beverage is an option to be included with school lunches and is also available a la carte for $.75. If you have questions, call Nutrition Services at 253-571-3370.
