The board shall issue a decision, in writing, to affirm, reject, or modify the district's action in the matter. The individual may then file a petition of appeal of the board's written decision to the Commissioner of Education through the Office of Controversies and Disputes in accordance with N.J.S.18A:6-9 and the procedures set forth in State Board of Education regulations.

Any parent/guardian wishing to appeal the decision for gifted and talented services may submit an appeal letter to Alysha Garcia, Director of Special Projects.

Student Name
School and Grade
Homeroom Teacher
Parent/Guardian(s) Name
Parent/Guardian email address
Address and Telephone Number

The content of the letter must include detailed rationale and specific reasons for the appeal.
