Please do not make these changes
 
 
We believe these changes will seriously impact the education of our gifted students.
 
In addition, the local school divisions cannot do anything without the funds to support the programs provided.  We suggest the the following language for funding be in place.
 
(2)   State funds administered by the DOE for the education of gifted students shall be used only to support those activities identified in the school division's plan as approved by the Board of Education (BOE).
