[quote=Anonymous]With my son, we were not sure if he would be in the pool until we got the CoGat results.  He had just missed the pool cut-off with the Naglieri.  We got the CoGat results a week before the parent referrals needed to be in.

In early January I let his teacher know that we would be submitting a parent referral if he did not make the pool with the CoGat results.  I wanted her to have a heads up looking for work samples and didn't want to spring it on her last minute.  In the end - my child did make the pool so the parent referral didn't really matter.

Work samples - I think you need to judge that yourself.  With my son we included pictures of him surrounded by a book he had written when he was in kindergarten.  We also included work samples from the second grade as well.  Whatever you do, don't include worksheets, especially math worksheets.  That doesn't really show much.

I agree with the other's that say go to the information session that the AART will put on once the school year starts.  That will be helpful.  But do NOT go into school the first week saying you are going to parent refer if you are not in the pool.  I think the teacher will roll their eyes.[/quote]
