Strategies for Teaching Twice-Exceptional Students. October, 2003 This article is a condensed version of an article by the same title from Understanding Our Gifted, Winter 2002.

When a child with a disability enters school the IDEA law (Individuals with Disabilities Education Act) requires that the student receive an individual education plan (IEP). In the document there has been a check off for indicating if the student is on a track to earn a high school diploma.
