Students who took the GATE test last year and did not qualify, can retake the test again this year. Students can take the test for a maximum of 3 times between grades 2-7. Please complete the GATE Parent Questionnaire/Test Consent Form on line via the link above.

If your child is GATE identified, it’s important to remember that D39C does not offer a traditional GATE program. We offer differentiated educational programs that provide advanced and accelerated development via our Explorations and Deep Dive classes on a regular basis to all our students. If your child is GATE identified, it will not affect their schedule. They will participate as all students do, in classes that provide an opportunity to meet their potential.

GATE test results will be mailed home approximately 6 weeks after the test.
