When your family may need to act
The published timeline, in one place.
Use the row that matches your child's grade and situation. Dates below come from the linked district instructions; confirm them before submitting.
01
Annual G/T referral opportunity
K-12 enrolled students
Annual cycle
The district confirms annual referral opportunities but does not publish one districtwide closing date on the guide. Contact the campus Advanced Academics Specialist for the current student's form and exact testing window.
Provide the last two years of ability, achievement and state testing, prior G/T identification records and the most recent report card; a recommendation may be requested later.
Understand the program. Manage the process. Build the learner.
Use the Parent Guide free. Choose Navigator when you want the process managed around your child. Choose Mentor when you want to connect that local opportunity to a longer-term interest, real projects, and a private record of growth. Bloomfield turns Gifted and Talented Services, Alpha and WAVE into three clear layers of support.
01Parent GuideFree
Know what the program actually requires.
Get the local program name, grades, identification process, services, deadlines, parent steps, and official instructions—all in plain language.
Navigator adds a child-specific timeline, deadline and policy alerts, a guided checklist, and one place to organize forms, work samples, and questions for the school.
Turn a future interest into work your child can do now.
Mentor includes Navigator plus a 12-week pathway, four short weekly challenges, one substantial monthly project, a Friday parent insight, and a private Growth Portfolio.
Supporting more than one child? Family includes the Mentor experience for up to three child profiles for $179 per year.
Mentor is guided learning software—not a live tutor or career promise. Pathways are explorations; Bloomfield does not promise placement or reproduce protected assessments.
What the official record confirms
Know the program. Know the route.
Applicable school year: 2026-27. Bloomfield separates official requirements from our preparation guidance.
01
Who and which grades
Published coverageK-12
02
How students are considered
Published processEnrolled students are evaluated with qualitative and quantitative screening, teacher recommendations, authentic assessments, classroom performance and placement procedures. Testing covers verbal, quantitative and nonverbal reasoning. Approved private psychologist testing may be accepted, and students may be referred again in a later annual cycle.
03
What service can look like
Published modelGrades K-3 receive pull-out and cluster-grouping services. Grade 4 uses pull-out in fall and Alpha in spring; Grade 5 reverses that sequence. In Grades 6-8, identified students may choose advanced home-campus honors or the WAVE magnet at League City or Westbrook Intermediate. High-school opportunities include AP, Dual Credit, UT OnRamps and AP Capstone.
