This book is a practical guide for K-12 educators as well as parents of students who are identified as being in the top academic percentiles of the population.

This book will provide an overview of some of the controversies and issues that face teachers from elementary through high school who are including gifted students in their regular classrooms. It will also provide support, strategies, and some humor for all stakeholders—parents included.

Audrey M. Quinlan, Ph.D., recently retired as the Chair of the Division of Education and Graduate Program Director at Seton Hill University in Greensburg, Pennsylvania where she still currently teaches a graduate course in gifted education and supervises student teachers. She holds supervisory, principal, and teacher certifications in elementary and middle level education and has taught and been principal in public and parochial schools.
