But all of your options for gifted students are outside of the regular school system, while the options for disabled children are part of the system. I doubt a gifted student would be granted money for a special tutor or more difficult lessons, but disabled students are subsidized hundreds of thousands of dollars for in-classroom aides, assistive devices, etc.
Meanwhile, gifted students should leave the public system and use vouchers for a private education?
- amateurpolymath 11y agoI can't speak for other states, but in Florida it's very easy to do dual enrollment, possibly the best option for a gifted high school student. As long as your courses are at a public university or community college, your tuition is fully funded by the state. Your high school credits are satisfied by college courses, you get college credits that are easily transferred to other universities when you graduate, for free. There are also plenty of challenging classes for gifted students, but this might vary from school to school.
