Additional Gifted Services Screening
The Gifted Services department offers courtesy screening for private school, home schooled, and new-to-the-system students who are entering 1st-12th grade in the 2019-2020 year. Parents should call the Department of Gifted Services at 757-591-4566 to pre-register a child for testing. This screening is for placement for the 2019-2020 academic year. Test session arrival times will vary depending on the assessments needed. As part of the pre-registration process, parents will be notified of the time to arrive for the test session.
For rising 1st-2nd grade students, the gifted screening process includes: an aptitude test, a parent evaluation of gifted characteristics, a teacher evaluation of the student's gifted characteristics, and a review of the student's academic grades.
For rising 3rd-12th grade students, the gifted screening process includes: an aptitude test, an achievement test, a parent evaluation of gifted characteristics, a teacher evaluation of the student's gifted characteristics, and a review of the student's academic grades.
