1st- 2nd grade CogAt Practice will take place for all students in their classroom.
Next- A 2nd grade AIG screening will take place with all students using the CogAt Assessment.
After- Some students may be invited to take the IOWA assessment based on scores or academic achievement.
Finally- 2nd graders who are identified as Academically &/or Intellectually Gifted will be scheduled to attend enrichment classes.
How 2nd Graders are identified:
Data is collected during CogAt Practice and classroom activities.
The School Based Committee for Gifted Education (SBCGE) - which is a committee made up of the AIG teachers, administrators, and classroom teachers - will analyze any and all data we have compiled on each student to decide whether or not the data supports having a child referred move through the identification process.
Once a child is referred, the AIG teacher will collect information that will be used in a portfolio. This portfolio will contain items such as: teacher checklists, parent checklists, work samples, report card grades, and scores from items such as grade level assessments. Students will have to demonstrate consistent above grade level performance of all items to be eligible for AIG identification.
Using the information we have gathered, the SBCGE will use a rubric style matrix, developed by the WCPSS Accelerated Learning Services Department, to determine whether a child qualifies for reading and/or math identification in AIG.

After your child's records have been received at Northwoods, the AIG Teacher is notified if there is documentation regarding gifted services from another school district. The AIG Teacher will review the documents with the School-Based Committee for Gifted Education (SBCGE) and will notify parents/guardians if the child will be granted reciprocity for AIG services in WCPSS.
