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 only quality control and outside review of a division plan is through the approval process by the DOE. Without DOE approval, no central authority will be responsible to confirm that the plan is in compliance with regulations.
Educators and community stakeholders invest significant time and effort to create a 5-year plan for gifted education and in the process seek peer review from other gifted education colleagues. To shift this process to the local level will eliminate the productive insights that emerge from this peer review.
