Underrepresentation in Gifted Education in the Context of Rurality and Socioeconomic Status
Hodges, Jaret; Gentry, Marcia
Journal of Advanced Academics, v32 n2 p135-159 May 2021
Proportional identification of students for gifted services in Florida school districts is an important goal. A multi-level model was used to analyze school district data from the Florida Department of Education from the 2011-2016 academic years. Results from the study indicate that the likelihood of identification of students varied by their socioeconomic status. Students who were Black were 59% more likely to be identified for gifted services if they participated in federal meal subsidy programs. However, the likelihood of identification for students who are Latinx or Native American decreased by 47% and 38%, respectively, when compared with peers who did not participate in federal meal subsidy programs.
