Response to Revision of Eduacational Services for Gifted Students
I am relieved to see this is finally underway. There has been great change in the field of Gifted Education since 1993. I need to know as a teacher of the gifted for the past 25 years that we are concerned about gifted students' needs ; we don't need to leave them behind in an effort to not leave any others behind. I am aware, painfully so, that SOL's in VA. have absorbed much of the funding for other programs; this is another reason to revitalize the expectations of the gifted program in our state. I appreciate the opportunity to say"Yes" to the state's scutiny of our gifted regulations.
