The Maine Department of Education (MDOE) requires every school administrative unit to implement a gifted and talented program under Maine Revised Statutes, Title 20-A, Chapter 311 and Department Rule Chapter 104: Educational Programs for Gifted and Talented Children. These statutes ensure that gifted learners are identified through multiple measures and provided with meaningful, appropriately challenging educational opportunities.

Renzulli Learning supports these mandates by providing a research-based, easy-to-implement platform that helps schools streamline identification, enrichment, and program documentation.

Nurturing Talent Across the Pine Tree State

Maine defines gifted students as those who excel or show potential for excellence beyond their peers in intellectual, creative, or artistic domains. Equity and access are central, ensuring that identification and services are offered fairly across districts.

Renzulli Learning empowers Maine educators to:

• Develop complete learner profiles using the Renzulli Profiler, Learning Styles Inventory, Executive Function Assessment, Leadership Assessment, and the Cebeci Test of Creativity.

• Create personalized enrichment pathways that inspire deep engagement and real-world application.

• Support equity of access with a web-based platform that can be used across Maine’s urban, suburban, and rural schools.
