How services work: Every identified learner receives an Advanced Learning Plan with standards-based academic and affective goals and programming aligned to individual strengths and needs. Local administrative-unit plans describe the available services.

How students are identified: Identification begins with referral or universal screening and uses a body of evidence gathered from multiple sources over time; no single data point determines gifted identification.
