Each year, Allen ISD hosts an informational meeting for parents providing information on the district’s Gifted and Talented services.  This year’s informational meeting is scheduled on Tuesday, January 26, 2021 at 6:00 p.m.  The meeting will be facilitated via Zoom webinar.  To join the webinar meeting, please go to https://zoom.us/s/91674840215.  There is no need to register for the meeting.  The recording of the meeting will be posted to the Gifted & Talented Services webpage for those who cannot attend the live webinar session and for those who wish to review a recording of the information.

This year, Allen ISD will begin offering the computerized version of the Cognitive Abilities Test (CogAT) for all students in grades 1-11 who test for potential gifted identification.  All students interested in participating in phase I of testing for potential gifted identification will take this administration of the CogAT onsite.  Separate testing sessions will be offered for in-person and at-home learners.  Registration for phase I testing for students currently in grades 1-11, opens January 26, 2021 and closes February 5, 2021.  Please access the registration form for more information, including testing dates, at https://forms.gle/GRSfCChSGmcuuBRZA.  (Please note: the registration form will not accept responses until January 26, 2021.)
