2008-2009 GATE Testing Information
PUSD Gifted and Talented Education (GATE) involves services for students whose
cognitive needs may require
modified classroom curriculum and instruction to accommodate their learning
differences and ensure their achievement. Parents may request GATE testing for
students in grades 2-7.
If you believe that your child may require GATE services, there are two
opportunities for your child to be evaluated this school year. You will find
general information about GATE services and GATE test information from the GATE
link on the PUSD Website (http://www.powayusd.com/teaching/learning/gate/).
