The framework for such programs will encompass, but not be limited to, the following objectives:

A. Expansão do desempenho académico e das competências intelectuais;
B. Estimulação da curiosidade intelectual, independência e responsabilidade;
C. Desenvolvimento de uma atitude positiva em relação a si mesmo e aos outros; e
D. Desenvolvimento da originalidade e criatividade.

The board will annually approve the district’s highly capable plan, including: the number of students the district expects to serve by grade level; the district’s plan to identify and place students, including universal screening at two grade levels; a description of the highly capable program goals; a description of the services the program will offer; an instructional program description; a description of ongoing professional development for highly capable program and general education staff; program evaluation and fiscal report; and assurances that the district is legally compliant.

The superintendent will establish procedures consistent with state guidelines for implementing universal referral, screening, assessment, identification and placement of highly capable students. The procedures will include prioritizing equitable identification from historically underrepresented and low-income students; use of multiple objective criteria and multiple pathways universal screening for identification and placement decisions; use of local norms unless more restrictive than national norms; and use of screening and assessment in the student’s native language (if available) or nonverbal assessment.
