Procedure for Screening and Referral of Students thought to be Mentally Gifted

Brandywine Heights Area School District conducts a screening of all second and third grade students in an effort to identify those who are thought to be gifted and in need of specially designed instruction.  In addition, teachers and parents may individually refer a child for an evaluation if they suspect the child may be gifted and in need of specially designed instruction. The process seeks input from multiple sources: teacher recommendations, ability as well as achievement scores, and parent recommendations.  A permission to evaluate is sent home for parental consent.
