Referrals for Gifted & Talented identification now open!

Each year, schools in St. Vrain Valley School District complete a process to identify students in grades K-12 who demonstrate exceptional ability or performance in one or more academic areas and may therefore qualify for Gifted/Talented educational services.  These students perform at least two years above grade level in their strength area(s) and require additional academic challenges in order to support their continued educational growth and progress. These students demonstrate characteristics of unique creativity and high motivation in their strength areas.

The search for gifted/talented students begins with an opportunity for parents and/or teachers to refer students for review.  Once referrals are received, a team of educators review students’ state testing data, standardized test scores, rating scales and other school data to determine student eligibility.

If you believe that your child qualifies for and would benefit from Gifted/Talented services, please click here for a nomination form, pick a form up from our school office, or contact Alpine’s Gifted/Talented teacher, Bob Roy, roy_robert@svvsd.org. (Esta información y la fórmula están disponibles en español, o comuníquese con Sr. Roy.)
