Action | Revision of regulations school divisions must meet in their gifted education programs, K - 12 |
Stage | Proposed |
Comment Period | Ended on 9/26/2008 |
To Whom It May Concern:
I am a concerned gifted education resource teacher who strongly supports keeping our current Gifted Regulations as opposed to implementing the proposed changes. I believe that a period of five years is necessary to present a Local Plan and that our plan should be submitted for peer revision before a final copy is approved. I also firmly support having funds earmarked for gifted services only so that the money intended for gifted students is directed to each district's Gifted Department. Further, I support keeping the approval of local plans in the hands of the current evaluators, and feel that approval of district plans should not be the responsibility of local school boards.
Respectfully submitted by,
