Board hears first reading of AIG plan required by Article 9B
Summary
John L. Eisenhower presented the first reading of the district’s 2025–2028 Academically/Intellectually Gifted plan under Article 9B, explaining identification standards, legal requirements for dispute resolution, and funding levels (noting AIG funding at about 4% of ADM while the district serves roughly 12% of students).
John L. Eisenhower presented the first reading of the 2025–2028 Academically/Intellectually Gifted (AIG) plan required under Article 9B of state law.
Eisenhower said the statute requires the plan be rewritten and reviewed every three years and that the document includes standards for identification, placement and dispute-resolution procedures. He told the board the district currently spends roughly 4% of ADM on AIG while serving about 12% of students, and emphasized the identification standard as the area most likely to draw legal challenges if not applied consistently.
Eisenhower described the revision process—advisory board feedback, focus groups and standards teams—and noted the document shared with board members contains multiple supporting practices and cross-references. He said the district has met the statutory requirements and that the board could approve the plan at second reading after members raise any questions.
No vote was taken; the item was presented for first reading and additional questions and a second reading are expected at an upcoming meeting.
