The board approved a first reading of proposed changes to its policy on Gifted and Talented student programs (Policy EHBB(LOCAL)).

What it means for you

This is a preliminary step in revising the rules governing how HISD identifies and serves gifted and talented students; a second reading would be required before changes take effect.

Outcome

Adopted as part of the board's consent agenda, not by individual vote: "On motion by board member Colón, with a second by board member Rosales, the board voted to approve the items on the consent agenda."
