OVERVIEW
""
   
 

Vermont Statutes define gifted and talented as “children …who, when compared to others of their age, experience or environment, exhibit capability of high performance in intellectual, creative or artistic areas, possess an unusual capacity for leadership or excel in specific academic fields.” Education for the gifted and talented differs from other content areas in that there are no state standards or grade level expectations. The Department of Education demonstrates support for this area by including an enrichment coordinator as part of the Standards and Assessment Team.
