Highly Capable Program
What is the HiCap Program?
Washington State's Highly Capable Program is a component of the state's program of basic education. Districts must define an educational program for Highly Capable students and comply with specific program requirements that are integrated across the K–12 continuum of services.
In the Renton School District, we provide an academic program in Kindergarten through 12th grade with various services models that includes instruction and services that enrich learning for students identified as Highly Capable, based on assessment data. To be eligible for identification, students must live within the Renton School District boundaries, including home schooled students.
