Action | Revision of regulations school divisions must meet in their gifted education programs, K - 12 |
Stage | Proposed |
Comment Period | Ended on 9/26/2008 |
The proposed regulations to change Virginia's gifted state program should not be implemented. Allowing local school authorities to have autonomy over the gifted programs will be a death sentence for every identified gifted child. The state needs to step up to the plate and continue to oversee to the welfare of each and every gifted child.
The state of Virginia should be overseeing the education and welfare of EVERY child. Not including gifted children in this equation would have a terrible effect on Virginia's excellent education record.
Please be an advocate for these children and continue to oversee to their well-being and education.
