Connecticut Gifted Students Identified, Not Guaranteed Services
from Talk Education · host TFD Supplies
Connecticut requires schools to identify gifted and talented students, but it does not require districts to provide specialized programs or services. Each district sets its own evaluation process and can identify no more than 10% of students, leading to different standards from one community to another. Parents should review their local district’s policies, as a gifted designation does not automatically come with enrichment opportunities or individualized instruction.
