Lakes School Corporation  \n2024-2025 High Ability Handbook  \nMission Statement  \nThe mission of the Twin Lakes School Corporation is to provide learning opportunities within a safe and enriching environment that will prepare our students to accept their responsibilities as productive citizens and to be prepared for lifelong learning.  \nIn regard to the High Ability Program we believe:  \n• Some students perform at or show the potential to perform at an outstanding level of accomplishment in the core academic areas of language arts and mathematics  \n• These students are found in all socio-economic, cultural, and ethnic backgrounds.  \n• We must identify such students through systematic, on-going procedures.  \n• Our high ability program will provide a supportive learning climate that will enrich and maximize student academic potential.  \nDefinition of High Ability Students  \nTwin Lakes defines a high ability student as one who performs at, or shows the potential for performing at, an outstanding level of academic accomplishments in math, language arts or both when compared to other students of the same age.  \nRequirements for Serving High Ability Students  \nThe Indiana Code sets forth certain requirements for Indiana school corporations related to the education of students with high ability.  \nThe corporation must…  \n• Identify students with high ability in all grades, K-12, in accordance with the Indiana Definition of High Ability Student. The Indiana definition is: “High ability student” means a student who:  \nPerforms at, or shows the potential for performing at, an outstanding level of accomplishment in at least one (1) domain when compared to other students of the same age, experience, or environment; and is characterized by exceptional gifts, talents, motivation, or interests.  \nWhile there are additional domains of high ability that may be served (for example, visual and performing arts), the required domains of high ability that Indiana schools must identify for are the General Intellectual and Specific Academic domains. For now, the designations are for students with high ability in Language Arts (HA-LA), students with high ability in Math (HA-Math), and students who have high ability in both Language Arts and Math (HA – General Intellectual)  \n• Record the relevant designation on the Student Test Number (STN) . HA-LA, HA  \n– Math, or HA-General Intellectual  \n• Provide “appropriately differentiated curriculum and instruction” to identified students in the relevant core content area(s) .  \n• Provide professional development in high ability education.  \n• Establish a Broad Based Planning Committee that will meet at least once per year to review the program.  \n• Evaluate the program and report annually to the IDOE on the programs and how the state grant to the corporation for high ability programs was used.  \nProgramming and Identification  \nElementary, K-5  \nFor young children, measures of aptitude or potential are very important. Children coming from impoverished or second language backgrounds may not have had enriching experiences prior to attending school; therefore, their scores on achievement tests may below, despite their advanced potential. Measures of aptitude that are less dependent on experiences and more dependent on reasoning will better enable us to find students with advanced potential. Therefore, students’ aptitudes are measured at three different grade levels to record patterns and accuracy of scores. The CogAT is given to every kindergarten student and select second and fourth grade students.  \nNorm –Referenced achievement measures or other evidence of ability to perform above grade level are also given. In grades K-2 the STAR Early Literacy test is given. Grades 2-5 use I-Ready ELA data and Math data.  \nIn addition, qualitative indicators provide additional valuable information for high ability identification. Kindergarten and first grade teachers rate the top 15% of their students using a checklist ","cbCaicBEUDzxdWk9","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaicBEUDzxdWk9","pdf",671602,17,"English","# Mission Statement\n# Definition of High Ability Students\n# Requirements for Serving High Ability Students\n# Programming and Identification\n## Elementary, K-5\n## Roosevelt Middle School, 6-8\n## Twin Lakes High School\n# Multifaceted Student Assessment","[{\"question\":\"How does Twin Lakes define a high ability student?\",\"answer\":\"Twin Lakes defines a high ability student as one who performs at, or shows the potential for performing at, an outstanding level of academic accomplishment in math, language arts, or both compared to other students of the same age.\"},{\"question\":\"What requirements must the corporation meet under Indiana’s high ability education rules?\",\"answer\":\"The corporation must identify high ability students in all grades K-12, record designations on the Student Test Number (STN), provide appropriately differentiated curriculum and instruction, provide professional development, form a broad-based planning committee, and evaluate and report annually to the IDOE.\"},{\"question\":\"What assessments are used to identify high ability students in the elementary grades?\",\"answer\":\"For K-5, the handbook explains aptitude-based measures such as CogAT (given to every kindergarten student and select 2nd and 4th grade students), norm-referenced achievement measures (STAR Early Literacy for K-2 and I-Ready ELA/Math for grades 2-5), plus qualitative indicators including teacher checklists and teacher nominations.\"}]","24-25 TL HA Handbook - High Ability Program Guidelines | PDF",1791197564,43]
