Abstract	The Missouri Department of Elementary and Secondary Education (DESE), in response to recommendations in the Annual Report of the Advisory Council on the Education of Gifted and Talented Students (2015), has produced this document to provide guidance for school districts to more equitably identify and meet the needs of traditionally underrepresented students (racial/ethnic subgroups, low SES, ELL, twice exceptional) in state approved gifted education programs. This document provides guidance for Missouri districts in developing acceptable pathways for identifying traditionally underrepresented student populations in state approved gifted programs and providing them appropriate services. Enrichment programming for those students that do not meet the qualifying criteria for placement in the state approved gifted program is also proposed. Districts are encouraged to examine all possible alternatives to determine what procedures are the best fit for their specific population of underrepresented students and local circumstances. The following are appended: (1) DESE Definition of Terms; (2) Subgroup Participation Targets in Gifted Programs; and (3) Frequently Used Tests For Identifying Giftedness. (ERIC).
