What the evidence confirms
Academically or Intellectually Gifted (AIG)
Newton-Conover City Schools uses districtwide screening, continuing case review, multiple identification pathways, and annual service planning across K–12.
How services work: A comprehensive continuum includes within-grade and cross-grade grouping, specialized instruction, subject or grade acceleration, enrichment, advanced classes, honors, dual enrollment, and annually reviewed DEPs tied to performance and individual needs.
How students are identified: All third-graders receive a nationally normed aptitude screen, with scores at or above the 85th percentile entering the initial pool. Teams also consider EOG or EOC results, grades, gifted behavior scales, referrals, portfolios, nontraditional evidence, and case studies.
