As a result of the decision by the Maryland State Superintendent that all state schools will remain closed until April 24 in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, we have shifted several dates related to the GT Placement timeline:

  • Families of 3rd grade students who wish to submit a request for a placement review for 4th grade GT Math should email the G/T Resource teacher with this request by April 15. Staff will conduct the review and communicate with families by May 1.
  • 3rd grade and 5th grade students who were absent for CogAT testing in December or have entered HCPSS since that time will have an opportunity to take CogAT for potential GT Placement this summer rather than the previously communicated date of May 2. New dates will be determined as soon as possible and communicated to the school community. Students who missed testing will automatically receive an invitation to testing once the dates are finalized.
