Tool Search: Gifted

The Gifted and Talented tool tracks a student's participation in Gifted and Talented programming through enrichment, acceleration, and/or advanced curriculum. Gifted and Talented programs vary in name - Gifted, Gifted and Accelerated, etc. Schools can record a student's participation that includes a specific type of program or location or focus, note permission to participate, generate a summary report of the entered data, and a variety of other items that states may wish to capture.

Students may have multiple records. The Identified Date on subsequent records must be after the Date Evaluated on the previous record. Records transfer with the student, when applicable.

See the core Gifted and Talented article for additional information.
