| Abstract | This mixed-methods study examined the relationships between teachers' perceptions of gifted program status and their curricular and instructional choices in teaching the gifted students in their classrooms. The research design included the use of data from two different sources: an anonymous online survey and semi-structured follow-up interviews. Two major findings from the study were: (1) Teachers in the study perceived that gifted education held low fiscal and priority status in their districts and/or schools, (2) The study’s teachers continued to provide differentiated curriculum and instruction for their gifted students, even though the gifted programs in their schools held low priority or status. |
