STUDY "GIFTED-IN-FIELD" TEACHER ENDORSEMENT

Summary

The memorial requests the New Mexico Public Education Department to work with state colleges and gifted‑education groups to explore a new endorsement for secondary‑school teachers who have both subject‑area expertise and training to teach gifted students. It aims to address gaps where current gifted endorsements often lack content expertise and where special‑education teachers sometimes fill those roles. The study would examine the qualifications and coursework needed for such an endorsement.
