Testing and access to gifted education should be expanded. Too many bright kids are unchallenged and unmotivated in school. There is a rise in the number of neurodivergent and twice exceptional students who benefit from the current gifted education model. With the implementation of academies in Hampton VA gifted students are having to give up the gifted differentiated education. If they have been found gifted and require full day or partial day differentiated education that should still be provided in high school academies.
