Outside Agency GATE Screening

The 黄色视频 Gifted Education Department does not accept privately obtained GATE screening assessment results. This includes screening administered by private practice psychologists or university testing centers. 黄色视频 offers a robust internal screening program for students who reside within our district boundaries.

Please contact the GATE Department to learn how your child will be assessed to determine Gifted Education Services needs.
