The district is now accepting parent referrals for Gifted & Talented services for the spring testing cycle.
GT services are designed to support students who demonstrate advanced learning needs in areas such as
reasoning, problem-solving, and creativity. Identification is based on multiple measures and is not something
students need to study or prepare for.
🗓 Parent Referral Deadline: March 9
📄 Parent Referral Form: https://forms.gle/h7Lz51cMTfAjUres7
Please note: Teachers have been sent a separate referral link via email. Teacher Referral deadline is March
6th.
If you have questions about the GT referral or identification process, feel free to contact your campus or the GT
coordinator: reynoldsa@conwayschools.info. You may also visit the website for more information.
Thank you for helping us ensure all students receive the services they need to grow and thrive!
