Gifted and Talented Nominations Grades K through 12th:
Each year, parents, guardians, students, and community members are given
the opportunity to nominate students for the Gifted and Talented Program in
Palestine ISD. According to The Texas State Plan and Guidelines for the
Education of the Gifted and Talents. "Gifted and talented students are those
