What the evidence confirms

Gifted & Talented Program

New Kent combines classroom differentiation, pull-out learning, middle-school gifted electives, advanced high-school courses, and Governor's School opportunities.

How services work: Resource teachers collaborate on differentiated content, process, and products; middle school adds an elective and individual acceleration, while high school includes honors, AP, dual enrollment, advising, and enrichment.

How students are identified: School staff, families, community members, peers, or students may refer during the first month of each semester. A committee reviews grades, work, tests, PETS and MAP indicators, and other evidence, with no single criterion controlling eligibility.

State context

Virginia local plans for gifted education

Virginia requires each school division to identify gifted students and provide services through a locally approved comprehensive plan.

For families: The statewide requirement is consistent, but areas of identification, evidence, grade services, and delivery are local.
