a comprehensive study of grouping by rogers states, "students who are academically or intellectually gifted and talented should spend the majority of their school day with others of similar abilities and interests." magnet schools, schools within a school, and classrooms composed entirely of gifted students may not be appropriate in all districts. in these situations, the study goes on to state, "the cluster grouping of a small number of students, either intellectually gifted or gifted in a similar academic domain, within an otherwise heterogeneously grouped classroom can be considered when schools cannot support a full-time gifted program (either demographically, economically, or philosophically)."
