HB 1295 -- Gifted Students Sponsor: Lampe Currently, school districts are allowed to establish special programs for gifted students. This bill requires the identification of academically gifted students and the establishment of programs or differentiated services for them. Each school district must annually submit a report on its programs and services to the Department of Elementary and Secondary Education for approval. Each district must also include information about the status of its gifted education program in its annual school report card. A target level for spending by the school district on these programs is specified.Copyright (c) Missouri House of Representatives
