*For 2nd graders only*

Austin ISD was awarded the prestigious Javits Grant. With this grant, 2nd graders across the district will undergo the GT screening process using the 3-part nonverbal section of CogAT as the first step in the screening process. If the 2nd grader meets the rubric point score determined by the district, they will be invited to participate in the rest (6 additional parts) of the CogAT test. If students are selected to complete the rest of the test- a parent observation form will be sent to you to be completed at that time.

The window for 2nd grade screening will be Sept. 23-Oct. 14.

For more information regarding the screener, please check out this flyer.
