G/T Transfer Students

In Texas, G/T program services differ from district to district. As a result, identification and assessment are based on each district's specific program model.

 

Students who have participated in gifted and talented programs prior to registering at Lake Worth ISD are considered for the gifted and talented program.  Screening records must be received from the previous school and will be reviewed using LWISD’s identification criteria.  If the transfer data is not compatible with LWISD criteria, new assessments will be needed to determine placement eligibility.  Assessments must be completed within 30 school days from receipt of the assessment results from the previous district following the LWISD identification process.
