GT

 

 

Do you see giftedness, or gifted potential, in a student? 

 

Take a look at the definition of a G/T student provided by the Texas Education Agency below.  Then, take a look at our 4-step process for G/T screening. 

 

A gifted/talented student is a child or youth who performs at or shows the potential for performing at a remarkably high level of accomplishment when compared to others of the same age, experience, or environment and who

  • exhibits high-performance capability in an intellectual, creative, or artistic area;
  • possesses an unusual capacity for leadership; or
  • excels in a specific academic field. (Texas Education Code §29.121)
