I have worked with gifted and talented students in a high poverty school for almost 20 years. Due to the educational needs in high poverty schools, a focus on standardized testing, and the concern to help all students be successful - gifted education in high poverty schools is often one of the last to receive funding and/or materials. There is often no set curriculum at the elementary level.
