Abstract

Abstract This essay reimagines talent identification in PreK–12 education by applying a talent scouting framework that emphasizes preparation, placement, evaluation, and adjustment. Equity and excellence are compatible goals and evidence-based strategies, such as frontloading and flexible grouping, can support all students with advanced learning needs. The future of advanced education depends on responsive, student-centered learning environments that prioritize individual development and growth in talent domains.
