Parents and teachers should refer
potential gifted students to the School Building Level Committee (SBLC)
at the student’s school.
This allows the student to be tested for
IQ, reading, language, and math aptitude by the school system’s
psychologists.
Once the student meets the state’s
criteria for the gifted program, a meeting is held for developing an
individual education program (IEP) for the gifted student. Then the
student is scheduled to be pulled out of a regular class and attend a
class designed for gifted students.
