What has happened to TAG funding over the years (currently incomplete data is presented)

In 2004, we contacted private schools to ask about their enrollment and why families chose to attend. In 2005, we collected some comments from families that left MMSD.

 

Deja Vu all over again: previous budget issues. I find myself wondering why we bother to update this page.

The 2002 Virchow Krause Functional Analysis as it relates to the TAG program or view the entire report. The March 3 list of Budget Discussion Items makes note of the impact the cut in TAG staff will have by mentioning that there is a larger proportion of our highest achieving students represented in our non-attending/dropout population than any other group.(emphasis added)

Wisconsin State Statutes related to gifted and talented education (DPI website)
