COVID-19 Information

Due to the pandemic, MITY has cancelled all of its in-person programs for summer 2020. Instead, MITY is excited to announce that it is offering unique online learning opportunities for students entering grades 1 – 12 in the fall. These classes will use the same inquiry-based, hands-on model as our regular programs and provide motivated students with meaningful learning challenges as well as a way to connect with like-minded peers. Details of these opportunities can be found under “Online Programs.” If current ExplorSchool and EYM families choose not to enroll in MITY’s online classes, they can receive a full refund.

Northwestern University's Midwest Academic Talent Search (NUMATS) is a research-validated program that utilizes above-grade-level assessment to help parents and educators better understand their students’ academic strengths and educational needs. NUMATS allows eligible students to take internationally recognized tests before the grade levels at which they are normally administered. The PSAT™8/9 test, designed for students in grades 8 and 9, is administered to students in grades 3 through 6. SAT® and ACT®, designed for students in grades 11 and 12, are administered to students in grades 6 through 9. NUMATS identifies academic ability, measures growth and connects gifted students to educational resources and opportunities for enrichment and acceleration.

The Duke University Talent Identification Program is a nonprofit organization that supports academically talented students in grades four through twelve. We offer above-grade-level testing, enrichment resources, year-round learning options, residential summer programs, online courses, and original research to supplement what students receive in school.
