A needs assessment of the Saginaw (MI) Public Schools Gifted and Talented Program (grades K-12) gathered information from gifted and talented professional staff (administrators, teachers, and counselors), secondary students, and parents. A total of 481 out of 1004 possible respondents returned the survey, with a lower than hoped for rate among elementary and secondary parents (29 and 22 percent respectively). Five functions emerged as the areas of highest need: (1) identification of gifted/talented students; (2) auxiliary support and staff; (3) parental involvement and commitment; (4) staff development; and (5) leadership by principal. One appendix contains a list of all high need functions and should be helpful in translating priorities into action plans for both elementary and secondary gifted and talented programs. Other appendices and tables provide copies of the survey instruments, detailed statistical analyses of the responses from each group, and a profile of return rates for each group. (VW)
