South Carolina Gifted and Talented Grade 2 Assessment Dates Announced
The South Carolina Gifted and Talented Grade 2 Assessment is a statewide assessment used to identify students for district Gifted and Talented programs. Students are identified for this program by demonstrating high-performance ability or potential in academic and/or artistic areas. Although the primary purpose of these assessments is to identify students for the gifted and talented programs, the student results can be useful to teachers as they examine their instructional practices. For more information regarding the assessment, please see the Gifted and Talented Program-Grade 2: Brochure for Parents and Students. Please make note of the following testing dates and make every effort to have your student present and on time and ready to do their best. We ask that you please refrain from scheduling appointments during designated testing times.

Note: These tests will be administered on a school-issued Chromebook. Please ensure that students come to school with a working, FULLY CHARGED Chromebook each day, but especially on testing days. It is also recommended that you periodically restart the device to install updates, especially prior to testing.
