Gifted & Talented Information There is new terminology in the AISD Gifted and Talented program. GT STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) is for students identified as gifted in math and/or science and GT Humanities is for students identified as gifted in language arts and/or social studies.
More information about the AISD gifted program is available from the Department of Advanced Academic Services website. This site can be found at: https://www.austinisd.org/advancedacademics/gifted/parent-corner
Each classroom teacher provides activities targeted to gifted and talented students, but the enrichment activities are available to high-ability students and others who want the challenge.
Nominations and screening run twice a year. 3rd – 5th graders can be nominated and screened during the early fall semester for testing in the fall. Kindergarten – 2nd grade students can be nominated in late fall for testing in the spring. There is a two-week window for nominations. All information will be communicated through the Oak Hill Eagle Eye Newsletter.
Thank you for your interest and support of the Gifted and Talented program at Oak Hill Elementary School. Click here for the nomination and parent checklist.
