[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am trying to figure out how to navigate PG County schools before moving to the area, and it seems like whether your kid gets into TAG programs makes all the difference in middle school and then high school. So...what if my kid DOESN'T get into TAG programs? Move out to Howard or elsewhere at that point? How high is the threshhold? How much of an advantage is it to have educated and involved parents vs being an actually truly exceptional kid? [/quote] The child must get an IQ score above the 80% on the OLSAT to be considered for TAG. My child didn’t pass the first time but we had private testing done and her new score was over 80. Other options are charter schools, Arts programs, local middle schools or administrative transfers to other middle schools. Then of course there is private school. How old are your kids? If they haven’t started yet you have 7 years to figure it out. [/quote] OLSAT isn’t an IQ test.[/quote]
