The Law Concerning Public Education of Gifted Students.

Zirkel, Perry A.; Stevens, Paul L.

Journal for the Education of the Gifted, v10 n4 p305-322 Sum 1987

This comprehensive overview of state and federal legislation concerning gifted education demonstrates that the primary source of law relating to gifted students is at the state level. Several administrative appeal decisions have been made in Pennsylvania. Litigation to expand entitlement based on federal law has been less successful than state-based cases. (Author/VW)
