[quote=Anonymous]Yes parent referrals can be done but there must be a normed test provided as a general screener to identify those who might not be referred. Without that there won't be an identification process (we have been told). It could certainly change. The assessment usually happens in 2nd and 4th grades but if your child misses it they take it the following year. For example, if they come to APS in 3rd grade they take the NNAT when the 2nd graders do but the norming is done compared to same-age peers. Students can take COGAT in 5th as well if they miss the 4th grade option. Honestly gifted options in APS are pretty minimal so it doesn't really matter. Then in middle school the only difference is that it's part of the consideration for starting Pre Algebra in 6th but most identified students don't go into that class- it's a subset of identified students who must demonstrate high level math skills and readiness, not just being identified.[/quote]
