The Beaubien School Regional Gifted Center provides a full-time, comprehensive program with a differentiated curriculum for gifted students, grades one through eight. This program is designed to maximize the gifted student's potential. Students are selected based on their ability to handle an advanced and demanding curriculum. Pupils are expected to accomplish eight years of regular Chicago Public Schools' curriculum objectives within six years in addition to the objectives delineated in the Center's state approved proposal. Presently, the Center's enrollment is limited to approximately 250 children. Generally, students are bussed to the center from the northwest quadrant of the city of Chicago, however, any identified student may attend as long as transportation is available. Administratively, the program is organized into three cycles: Primary, grades 1-3; Intermediate, grades 4-6; Upper, grades 7-8. The design of the program prepares children in the primary cycle for formal disciplines beginning at the intermediate cycle. Students at the upper level are prepared for advanced placement studies in high school. Upon graduation, most Beaubien students continue in selective enrollment programs such as the International Baccalaureate program at Lincoln Park High School (IB Program), Lane Technical, Whitney Young, Northside College Preparatory School, and the Illinois Math and Science Academy. Students may use the lunchroom facilities for bag lunch or participate in the hot lunch program.
