Gifted & Talented Students:
Who are they?
SC definition:
“Gifted and talented students are
those who are identified in grades
one through twelve as demonstrating
high performance ability or potential
in academic and/or artistic areas
and therefore require an educational
program beyond that potential.”

purpose of identification includes:
Finding students who display talent
beyond that of their peers in one or

theatre, and visual arts).

Identifying Gifted and Talented Students
When identifying gifted and talented students, there must be a system in place that operates in the following manner:
Seeks variety
Utilizes assessment measures
Eliminates bias
Identifies potential
Assesses motivation
(Ross 1993)
![Page 9: Identifying the Artistically Gifted Childhms.sumterschools.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/27/2017/... · 2017. 11. 8. · Identifying Gifted and Talented Students When identifying gifted](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022051822/5fec4a77d555994d9e61ca85/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Identifying Gifted and Talented Students
“Gifted and talented students may
be found within any racial, ethnic,
or socioeconomic group; within
any nationality; within both
genders; and within populations
with physical disabilities, learning
disabilities, or behavioral
problems.”
(Pursuant to S.C. Reg. 43-220)
