Mr Wilson instructs the students on how to behave prior to the bus drills. Gifted and Talented classes on the rise Beaver Falls provides, through its District-operated programs, Gifted Classes to meet the needs of identified gifted students. Gifted and Talented classes on the secondary level have been in operation at B.F. for four years. They are coordinated by Miss Hazel Kronk, the Resource Teacher. Placement in the program is initiated through referrals by teachers and parents, intelligence tests, and individual psychological evaluation by the school psychologist. Each student follows a planned Individualized Education Program which is developed by the students, the parents, an academic classroom teacher, the princpal, and the resource teacher. The 18 students in Miss Kronk's Gifted Classes have been involved in many interesting and educational field trips over the past four years. These include: walking tours of the buildings in the Beaver County Health Complex and Red Cross Building, lunchtime lectures at the Medical Center’s Educational Center, United Way Building and Services, Fort McIntosh Historical Site, Beaver Trust Bank Hidden Art Gallery, Merrick Art Gallery, a trial at the Beaver County Court House, Beaver County Times tour, a Golf Field Day Event and Buhl Science Center in Pittsburgh. Each year five students participate in Geneva College’s High-Q program, and Advanced Spanish students observe Spanish Classes on the Geneva Campus.
