-The Cognitive Abilities Test (CogAT 7) will be given
November 18 to all 5th graders for GT middle school qualifications. The students
will take the non-verbal section of the test. This is a paper-pencil test
containing 60 questions. The CogAT is a timed test. Students will be given 30
minutes to complete the test. Test results will be sent to the parents and all
HISD middle schools in early January 2015.
*Also, a reminder: If you wish to receive your child's
transcripts for Middle School applications, please send the form back to school
that went home two weeks ago. If you no longer have that form, please send a
written note asking for the transcripts with your child's name on it. I will
make sure it gets to the office.
**In regards to teacher recommendations through HISD: I will be filling out the online recommendation for ALL of my students so you do not need to request one from me. Once I have submitted the recommendations, all of the HISD middle schools will have automatic access to it. You do NOT need to submit a hard copy to the middle schools.
