The Virginia Department of Education Revised Gifted Education Regulation-Disproportionate
 

To the member of this committee I beleve the following :

  • School divisions in Virginia  population  for the gifted program should refect that community .
  • That data should also show the representation of low -income and minority students in the gifted education  programs .
  • Resolve resource inequities  and make sure there are quality teachers along with instructional  support.

 Do not approve of this regulation in its current form .
