Regulations governing gifted education in Virginia
 

The Commonwealth of Virginia, under aegis of the department of education, has an opportunity to systemically ameliorate the racial and income disparity in gifted education.  This issue has been thoroughly researched by a bevy of scholars and non-scholars.  Therefore, current policymakers need not waste time with convening another group to study this matter.  The progressive position would be to implement, with all deliberate speed, the plan devised by the NAACP.
