QUEST (gifted and talented)

Grades K-5

In grades K-2 all students get classroom (Tier 1) services and teachers watch for gifted behaviors. In grades 3-5 a universal screening with several measures decides pull-out services (Tiers 2 and 3). For 2025-26 the Tier 3 measures were the CogAT Screening Form, the Acadience Reading screener and the iReady Math diagnostic. Identification is redone every year.
