The Capitol Hill Mission
The School Board of the St. Paul Public Schools originally established what is now Capitol Hill as a full-time program for gifted students. The sole mission of Capitol Hill Magnet School is “challenging academically gifted and talented students in a diverse school community.” There are three major components to successfully meeting the goals embedded within the school's mission:
- Students who are academically gifted and talented (and who need a specialized setting in order to achieve their fullest potential) must be identified;
- A school community that recognizes, accepts, and embraces diversity must be maintained; and
- The educational modifications that it takes to truly meet the needs of these exceptional learners must be provided.
Capitol Hill can operate optimally only with the full inclusion of all three of these key components.
Parent/Student Handbook
Capitol Hill's Parent/Student Handbook delivers valuable information on topics from school hours to food prices, and enrichment opportunities for students to involvement opportunities for parents. It's a “must-read” for parents and guardians of Capitol Hill students.
