The Students' Activities in Investigative Learning, SAIL, program is designed for those middle school students who meet Missouri's criteria for “gifted” education. These students are selected annually, at the end of their 5th grade year. Students not selected for immediate inclusion are put on a waiting list.
The SAIL program offers classes which enable the gifted/talented middle school students an opportunity to self-select topics of interest for independent or small group investigation within Hazelwood's approved curriculum for gifted education. Various activities in each field of learning make this a multi-dimensional program. Guest speakers, field trips, and academic competitions at the district, state, and national level are another means of meeting the interests of all students.
