An Emphasis on Gifted
Education
Faculty and staff at Hanes recognize that every student is
gifted. Teachers of core subjects are encouraged to pursue licensure in gifted
education. In addition, all Hanes teachers receive training on Joseph
Renzulli's Schoolwide Enrichment Model, which suggests that intelligence tests
are just one way to identify giftedness.
Foreign Language
Instruction
Students take foreign language classes each year and may choose
from French, Latin or Spanish.
Technology throughout
the School
Federal Magnet Schools Assistance Grant money will greatly expand students' access to
technology, including laptop and classroom computers, flat screen monitors, digital
video cameras and equipment, and TI-NavigatorTM and mimio systems.
The magnet program is open to students from throughout Forsyth County. Transportation is provided by Winston-Salem/Forsyth County Schools to any student who fills out a Magnet School Application.
