How often can my child be evaluated for gifted services? How many times can my child be evaluated?

Posted by:

No student will be evaluated more than once in a two-year period, as test scores are valid for two years. Additionally, because we do not want to discourage our high-achieving students or have them engage in repeated testing for the purpose of gifted identification, a child may be evaluated to consider gifted eligibility a maximum of three times over their K-12 school career in CSD.  Exceptions will be made only upon the recommendation of the district-wide appeal committee. Children from demographic groups currently underrepresented in the gifted program may be evaluated one additional time.
