Our first session focused on best practices when identifying gifted learners including the
requirements of NJ law, creating multiple pathways for referral including universal screening to cast a wider net, and evaluating the use of matrices or profiles as data analysis tools to ensure equity for historically underserved students in gifted programs.
Goal-setting and programming options were the focus of the January session, which began with a brief overview of programming requirements under the law. We then looked at gifted education
from an administrator’s perspective – as part of a district commitment to developing a continuum
of services to meet the needs of all learners, including advanced learners.
