[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’ve heard the GT designation helps MS and HS know which classes to put the students in, so it’s not useless.[/quote] Nope. Test scores and grades help with Magnet admission and special HS program admission. In HS kids self select which classes they want to be in. GT designation doesn’t play a part.[/quote] I’m talking about for criteria-based classes that students can’t automatically be admitted to without demonstrating they can handle them. Not talking about magnet programs.[/quote] There are only two criteria based classes in MS and that is Math and Social Studies. Both of which take MAP score and grades into consideration (and previous class for math). Not GT designation. There are criteria based HS programs. They also don’t take GT designation into account.
