Students in grades K-3 have the opportunity to participate in PTP. Students are informally selected for the Primary Talent Pool. This informal selection process includes the collection of evidence that may include, but is not limited to:
parent/teacher recommendations
work samples
MAP test scores
screening procedures
sociograms
self-surveys
Students are serviced in a variety of ways. Some examples of service options include:
differentiation in the classroom
curriculum compacting
independent study
pull-out services
NOTE: PTP ends after the completion of 3rd grade. Students in PTP are NOT automatically identified for Gifted and Talented services.
