Arts Gifted and Talented Screening Process

Arts Gifted and Talented Process and Dates

Artistically gifted and talented students display talent or high-performance abilities beyond those of their peers in music, dance, theatre, or visual art.


Students are nominated by their teachers and parents to be screened for the Artistically Gifted and Talented Programs, between December and February.  Students are then screened by professional artists within their gifted area of music, dance, theatre, or visual art.  Guardians of qualifying students will be notified by email about the Arts gifted program opportunities available throughout the school year and summer.

The KCSD Arts Gifted programs are housed at the Arts Center of Kershaw County, 810 Lyttleton Street, Camden, SC 29020.
