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, TI-NspireTM and televisions with wireless QOMO tablets.
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.
