Things to Consider

• Each of the 565 American Indian tribes in the United States has a unique tradition, language, and culture. American Indians are more likely to be geographically isolated and experience generational poverty than any other minority group in the United States.

• American Indians remain among the lowest achieving student groups in the United States.

• The characteristics of high-ability American Indian students may differ significantly from the characteristics and behaviors typically associated with gifted children.

• Educators who provide a culturally responsive learning environment encourage students to exhibit gifted characteristics and behaviors.

• American Indians are unlikely to draw attention to themselves, and typically value family and community above individual accomplishments.
