He's supposed to receive enrichment


Pp, did you receive a letter/notice if not meet the criteria in 2nd grade back then? I wonder if parents get notified no matter what if it is a yes or no. What enrichment could 3rd grader get on math or/& language?


One very common example enrichment is separate math and reading groups with harder and more complex material.


But, as noted elsewhere, this is not implemented with fidelity across the system. Part of that is difficulty for teachers to spend time with GT students when there is not a large cohort/when the bulk of need is with other populations.


I mean, it doesn't have to be fancy. A cart of pre-selected "advanced" books and letting the kids have their pick for 45 minutes counts too.

Isn’t every parent going to say that their kid is awesome at everything? I am just wondering if the survey is actually used by the school or they just ask the current 2nd grade teachers and go with that list for G&T.


I think it is almost entirely MAP scores and grades.


And teacher observation.

I just checked and I don’t have anything. I wonder if those who were notified were notified by mistake? I know my kid qualifies (we had external neuropsych eval revealing highly gifted)

Yes, they notify either way.

For those who worry their kids did not meet the second grade criteria, they will also keep retesting third, fifth and seventh grade. Almost everyone will be identified GT by high school

I don't think every school has uploaded the results. I don't see anything yet, and I'm fairly certain my kid meets all the criteria.
