The Strengthening Gifted and Talented Education Act
In January of 2020, Governor Murphy signed The Strengthening Gifted and Talented Education Act into law. The bill codifies a requirement included in State Board of Education regulations that boards of education ensure that appropriate instructional adaptations and educational services are provided to gifted and talented students in kindergarten through grade 12 to enable them to participate in, benefit from, and demonstrate knowledge and application of the New Jersey student Learning Standards.
