I went to a meeting last night in Rio Rancho and I am totally confused. I thought AAGTS is trying to protect the gifted. On their website as of today it states:
HB331 is the new bill: it has now moved from the House Education Committee to the House Appropriations and Finance Committee.
You can track its progress via the bill finder on the NM Legislature website.
(1/26/09) Here is a draft (page1, page2, page3) of Section 22-13-1.8 of the imminent bill. It is based on the joint NMAG/AAGTS language we submitted and provides for a student specific gifted education plan; the changes.
If I am reading this correctly then HB331 is based on AAGTS language.
So What's up
