⌛ Interested in Magnet Eligible Testing? Complete this nomination form here

The spring 2022 testing nomination window is now open through April 8th.

Please note: Students cannot be tested twice with a cognitive test in one calendar year (for instance, a student tested in the spring of 2021 would not be eligible to test again until the spring of 2022). During the fall semester, students enrolled in Kindergarten, 2nd, and 6th grades are tested with the NNAT as part of the universal screening process; those families do not need to submit this form.

Also note that we cannot test Pre-K students (the testing systems do not norm correctly until age 5). If you are interested in ECE services, please contact the ECE Department or individual schools participating in advanced kindergarten programming.

More information and translated documents can be found on our website (scroll down).
