Middle School GT Identification Process
(for INCOMING 7th and 8th graders)
The window has opened for our current 6th graders (incoming 7th graders) who wish to sign up for qualification for gifted and talented services. Students will be assessed initially using the CogAT and ITBS tests. Please see the schedule below to plan your family’s schedule. Students must take all 4 tests. There are no preparation materials available for these assessments. In addition to the testing, students entering grades 7 and 8 who have not yet been identified as gifted and talented must be nominated by a parent, teacher, counselor, community member, or themselves. It is not necessary for a student who is already identified as gifted and talented in Carroll ISD to participate in testing again.
To begin the identification process, please fill out the CISD Middle School Gifted and Talented Nomination and Referral Form by Friday, March 31st 4:00 PM.
