The Enumclaw School District will provide the opportunity for students in kindergarten through 12th grade to be assessed for talented (highly capable) services.

This year’s test for students in second through 12th grades will take place from 9 a.m. to noon on Saturday, May 2, at Southwood Elementary School. Kindergarten and first-grade assessment will take place during regular school days on April 25 and May 2. Testing days for each elementary school for kindergarten and first grade will be communicated as needed with families who have referred their student for testing, once those dates have been determined.

Those interested in having their child assessed for services can obtain referral forms at the office of their child’s school. The deadline for submitting referrals for all students will be April 3. Parents, teachers, or community members may refer students for testing. Parents must give their permission for a student to be tested.
