• Gifted/Talented & Advanced Academics

     

    The secondary GT service model is a Specific Subject Matter Aptitude model. Identified students in grades 6-12 are served in one or more of the four core content areas of English Language Arts, Math, Science, and Social Studies. Advanced Placement (AP) and KAP curricula are differentiated to meet the unique needs of gifted learners. AP/GT and KAP/GT courses are taught by teachers who have received training in the education of the gifted. These courses carry a "weighted" grade point; for example, an A average counts as five grade points rather than the traditional four grade points in high school credit classes.

    Gifted and Talented Screening  
    For students in grades 6-11, screening information is publicized on junior high and high school campuses. To request GT screening, parents of students in grades 6-11 must complete the Secondary Parent Checklist by the published date in early October. 

    Please contact Kayla Saam, the Adams Junior High GT Facilitator if you have any questions: kayladsaam@katyisd.org 

    All Parent Checklists must be completed using the link above by the deadline posted below. No late forms will be accepted.
