Have you ever wondered why some bright students are overlooked by traditional gifted programs? We explore how a strengths-based lens—focusing on qualities like resilience, hope, and engagement—can reveal giftedness in new and powerful ways. Especially for students from diverse backgrounds who may not excel on standard tests, this approach offers a more equitable and holistic way to recognize and nurture their unique talents.
