Every child of every ability deserves to be encouraged to achieve his/her academic best, whether thar requires a specialized program within the curriculum (i.e. and IEP) or additional work that stretches knowledge or grade level (i.e. gifted and talented programs). Schools that do not provide and/or are unable to provide programs that meet student needs should be required to report that condition, so that the problem can be remedied, not ignored by lack of reporting.
