Action:
Revision of regulations school divisions must meet in their gifted education programs, K - 12
Action 1933
General Information
Action Summary |
The Regulations Governing Educational Services for Gifted Students were last approved in 1993, with an effective date of February 1995. Those regulations specify what gifted education services school divisions in the Commonwealth of Virginia shall provide students from kindergarten through graduation. The regulations speak to the area(s) of giftedness to be served, the identification of students in the selected area(s) of service, the criteria for screening and identification, the components of local plan that each division must have approved by the Department of Education, the assurances the school division must provide to the department regarding elements within the local plan, and provisions of use of state funds designated for division-wide gifted education services. The proposed revisions will allow the Virginia Board of Education to review contemporary research and best practices in the field that have occurred in the last decade and to ensure that Virginia's regulations are consistent with that information. |
