What is the difference between Academically Gifted (AG) and Gifted and Talented (GT)?
CategoriesDepartment |
Academically gifted students have been state-tested, starting in the third grade, and qualify for Differentiated Services in Gifted Education.
Gifted and Talented (GT) is the title given to the program in some magnet schools. The GT magnet program is based on the belief that every child has gifts and talents that need to be valued and nurtured and thus is offered the opportunity to participate in an extensive elective program.
