All TAG nominations were due in November and have now been processed.  Please check again next fall if you wish to nominate your child for TAG.

Our building wide TAG plan helps to provide a detailed explanation of the on-going work here at Richmond.  It specifies our focus for professional development, instructional practices taking place in the classroom, and how we differentiate our instruction on a daily basis.
