Each year St. Vrain Valley School District completes a process to identify
students in grades K-12 who demonstrate exceptional ability or performance
in one or more academic or talent areas and may therefore qualify for Gifted
and Talented educational services. These students usually perform at least
two years above grade level in their strength area(s) and require
additional academic challenges in order to support their continued
educational growth and progress. In addition, they usually demonstrate
characteristics of unique creativity and high motivation in their strength
areas.
The search for gifted/talented students begins with an opportunity for
parents/guardians and/or teachers to refer students for review. Once referrals
are received, a team of educators review student state testing data,
standardized test scores, rating scales and other school data to determine
student eligibility. Nomination does not automatically guarantee additional
GT testing but this will be determined by reviewing school data.
If you believe that your child qualifies and would benefit from district
Gifted/Talented services, please use the following link to the district
nomination form. We ask that you consider the child’s top TWO strength
areas when completing this nomination.
Nominations close September 30, 2021.
Thank you.
