The most important thing you need to know about this valuable gifted education for your special needs children is that your school is NOT the gate-keeper of the educational talent search programs. You have every right to sign your child up for talent search. Do not let someone else's definition of gifted limit your child's opportunities.
Talent searches identify gifted and talented students (based on test scores) during the mid to late elementary school years. This is the time that difference in abilities really begins to show up. Once in the talent search program, there are newsletters, websites, and correspondence and online learning opportunities for a wide variety of subjects. Gifted kids get access to accelerated learning, plus a sense of camaraderie with gifted peers.
