When are students identified for the Academically Gifted Program in WCPSS?
CategoriesDepartment |
Wake County begins AG identification by administering the Cognitive Abilities Test (CogAT) in grade 3.
Students scoring at the 75th percentile or higher on the CogAT (sub-tests and/or composite scores) will then be administered the Iowa Test of Basic Skills (ITBS).
Students who score at or above the 90th percentile on either assessment will be considered for nomination.
Students identified begin services in grade 4. For more information visit the AG Web site at http://www.wcpss.net/curriculum-instruction/ag/index.html .
