The gifted education identification process is ongoing throughout the school year. A student may be referred at any time by a parent, professional, divisionwide screening tool, or self-referral. The process begins with the completion of a referral form. These forms are available on the PWCS Gifted Education and Talent Development website. Referrals can also be made by sending an email to the gifted education resource teacher at the school.

To refer a student for gifted evaluation, return the referral form or send an email to Mr. Adams, the gifted education resource teacher atLeesylvania Elementary School. If you would like a printed copy of the referral form, if you have any questions about gifted services, or if you would like more information, please contact Mrs. Adams at [email protected]
