[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What if a kid is 95th percentile or higher but not identified as GT? Can they still potentially receive enrichment at their home school?[/quote]

Yes.  Via the Benchmark advance enrichment curriculum which all schools are supposed to get/have access to or via compact math (4/5 grade) and ELC curriculum that is being rolled out to schools.  Some schools already have it.[/quote]

What is the criteria for ELC eligibility?[/quote]

I think it's an A in ELA and hitting the threshold on MAP-R, which depends on the socioeconomic status of your school. Ranges from a minimum of 80th percentile on MAP-R to 95th percentile if you're in one of the schools in the wealthier parts of the county. [/quote]

I’m pretty sure it’s 50th percentile at the low SES school that I work at. And it’s a small class.  I think those of you who live/work in high SES schools are really unclear of the discrepancy. For example, my class took the Map-R test this week and the class average was under 50th percentile. On Map-M, 40% of my class falls below the 25th percentile and 80% under the 50th percentile. This is 5th grade. The curriculum does not help as it does not focus on the basics needed for these students.[/quote]
