The charge for this review was to conduct a comprehensive review of the
services for identified talented and gifted students in the Portland Public
Schools, K-12.
The intent was to provide the Portland Public Schools with findings and
recommendation regarding the current program activities for identified talented
and gifted students. The report was based on data collected, available reports
and documents, and information shared by members of the Portland Public Schools
community and was framed based on national best practices and standards for
gifted education and Oregon State guidelines for the education of gifted
students.
