Who and which grades
Published coverageK-12 continuum; direct FOCUS tiers serve K-6
How students are considered
Published processFor 2026-27, Grade 4 takes verbal, nonverbal, and quantitative Naglieri; Grade 2 takes verbal and nonverbal; Kindergarten takes verbal. Students in the top five percent of their school and grade qualify for Tier 2, and the very top of Grade 4 may receive Tier 3 in Grades 5-6. The ongoing Gifted Identification Inventory permits any teacher, including specials, to add academic achievement, classroom performance, work samples, and observations; a student is not automatically excluded for missing the Naglieri cut score.
What service can look like
Published modelAll K-6 students receive Tier 1 whole-class gifted lessons. Students identified through local norms and multiple evidence receive weekly Tier 2 pull-out; selected identified Grades 5-6 students receive an additional weekly Tier 3 session. Grades 7-12 use electives, Honors, AP, clubs, leadership activities, contests, and independent study under separate course-selection rules.
