[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I spoke with central as the comments were conflicting with the system documents I read.

--all Grade 3 student in the field test schools will be reviewed for academic need regardless of completing an application
--all Grade 3 students in field tests schools will receive an outcome letter about the review  and recommend system next steps (recommendation for assessment, enrichment and acceleration is meeting student needs at this time)
--all Grade 3 parents will have the ultimate say of being considered for and not being considered for moving forward in the assessment process – continue into assessment, decline assessment (process will stop) or  request assessment if not initially recommended
