Abstract | The document reports findings of a 1988-89 survey of all school districts in New Jersey to determine the status of gifted education. Major findings included the following: a total of 122,626 New Jersey students were identified and served during the 1988-89 school year; a larger percentage (11.3%) of the total school population was served than in the previous year; the number of urban students served more than doubled from the previous year; the most common program provided students in grades 2-6 is a pull-out program whereas the most common program provided gifted students in grades 7-12 is enrichment in the regular classroom; all school districts use multiple criteria to identify gifted students; teacher nomination and standardized achievement test scores are the most common methods used for gifted identification in grades PreK-9, whereas teacher nomination and report card grades are the most common identification methods used in grades 10-12; in grades PreK-8, there is a higher percentage (56%) of gifted program teachers than other program teachers (44%) with the reverse being true in grades 9-12.
