At-Risk / Gifted Drop-Outs

Abstract: A 6 page paper that supports the contention that at-risk, gifted students are more likely to drop out of school than their non-gifted peers. This paper supports this belief by representing the many extenuating educational and personal issues that are experienced by gifted students, and also suggests that the same educational structures that have been developed to support students may also trigger significant behavioral problems for many gifted children. Bibliography lists 8 sources.
