What the evidence confirms

Gifted and Talented Education

Tift County's gifted program enhances and extends the adopted curriculum through individual and group exploration plus critical, creative, and practical application of knowledge.

How services work: Students receive one or more Georgia-approved models, including resource, advanced content, cluster grouping, or collaborative teaching. Exact placement depends on eligibility and the student's school schedule.

How students are identified: Teachers, families, students, and peers may nominate. School eligibility teams review data before any consented formal evaluation, with separate fall, winter, and spring testing windows for transfer, K–12, and kindergarten groups.
