The testing window for placement in Granite School District’s Advanced Learner Programs is October 10th-December 9th for grades 3-6 and January 4th-March 3rd for grades K-2. Testing at Elk Run Elementary will occur on October 12 and 13, 2016 for grades 3-5 and on October 12 and 13, 2016 for 6th graders entering junior high. It is not necessary to have your child tested each year; however, children who want to be considered for placement in a third grade advanced learner cluster group must be tested in second grade. Students in grades K-5 who would like to be considered for the Advanced Learning Center Programs at Fox Hills and Morningside Elementary must participate this year in the assessments. In addition, sixth graders interested in taking GT classes in junior high must also be tested. It is not necessary for 6th graders registering for honors classes to be tested. If you would like your child to participate in the Advanced Learner testing please notify the office by Thursday, October 6, 2016.
