What the evidence confirms

Talented and Gifted (TAG)

All schools provide TAG services, with differentiated classroom, pull-out, and full-day center models for identified students.

How services work: Regular-classroom differentiation, two-hour weekly pull-out programs, and lottery-based full-day TAG Centers in grades 2–8.

How students are identified: Universal testing in grades 1 and 4 is combined with multiple quantitative and qualitative measures; center placement requires TAG identification.

State context

Maryland gifted and talented education requirements

Maryland requires universal screening no later than grade 3, additional identification in grades 3–5 and 6–9, and differentiated services during the regular school day.

For families: Every Maryland system must publish an equitable identification process, identify a significant number in every school and at least 10% systemwide, and provide services that accelerate, extend, or enrich instruction.
