- Abstract
This study was conducted to explore the influence of culture in the implementation of state gifted identification policies within the four sample schools on English Learners' limited learning opportunities. The study utilized the data analysis spiral approach (Creswell, 1998) in order to examine data derived from interviews, field notes, and observations of 66 sample population, as well as archived public documents and other written sources. Seven significant themes emerged in the findings of the study. As the EL population in the United States continues to grow, this study recommends a sense of urgency to create, devise, fund and implement state and district policies that would minimize ELs' limited learning opportunities in gifted programs.
