[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In the letter soliciting parent feedback, they included a link to an FAQ site:

If you look at the different pathways to get identified, there's no pathway without 85+ percentile on CoGAT. Does this mean the county is becoming more stringent around the process?

Was this how it was pre-pandemic?[/quote]

They didn’t administer the cogat to 2nd graders pre-pandemic, only 3rd and 5th. No DIBELS. I can’t recall what they used instead. There was a confusing parent survey pre-pandemic. [/quote]

My now-senior took the Raven in 2nd for GT identification, and the CoGAT for HGC and MS magnet admissions. And yeah, weird parent survey in 2nd.

This year’s seniors are the last group admitted to the HGC program when it was called that.

The HGC/CES switch came between their 4th and 5th grade years, but I’m pretty sure MCPS continued to consider the CoGAT until 2020. The tweaks to the now-CES criteria were relatively minimal at first, IIRC. [/quote]
