Testing

GT Testing at FASD

Universal screening is conducted for 1st and 5th graders using the NGAT assessment. For other grades, nominations are required. Universal screeners happen each year from September - December. Please see the FASD GT Testing Calendar below for exact testing dates.

NGAT

All 1st & 5th grade students who do not already have a qualifying cognitive test score will take the NGAT test between September and November each school year.

NNAT

The NNAT3 is now currently used for ECE students.

CogAT

Any students nominated for cognitive testing that are not in 1st or 5th grade will take the CogAT at FASD with the GT Coordinator.

CogAT Nomination Form

Students who receive scores in the 95th percentile or higher on a cognitive assessment (CogAT, NNAT, NGAT, or psychologist-administered cognitive such as the WISC, DAS, etc.) will be labeled as magnet eligible by the GT Central Office of DPS. Students who receive a qualifying cognitive score and identification with additional qualifying data will then receive the HGT identification.
