This screening takes place automatically during the school day and throughout the school year. Eligibility is determined based on each student’s performance across multiple measures. To qualify, students must score within the top 20% of their grade level. Parents are notified of GATE placement decisions by early July.  \nOnce a student is placed in the GATE program , the designation remains in their record through graduation. Students continue in the GATE cluster program through the end of 6th grade. At the middle and highschool levels , all students have access to advanced learning opportunities based on each school’s program and placement policies. GATE identification is not required to participate in advanced courses during middle or high school.  \n\n| 3rd Grade MCM |  |  |  |\n| --- | --- | --- | --- |\n| To qualify for program placement, a student must meet criteria in 3 of 4 categories |  |  |  |\n| ABILITY CATEGORY | READING ACHIEVEMENT CATEGORY\u003Cbr>Must meet 1 of criteria measures | MATH ACHIEVEMENT CATEGORY\u003Cbr>Must meet 1 of criteria measures | CREATIVITY CATEGORY |\n| Naglieri (NNAT) | CAASPP ELA\u003Cbr>STAR Reading Fall\u003Cbr>STAR Reading Winter | CAASPP Math\u003Cbr>STAR Math Fall\u003Cbr>STAR Math Winter | Writing Score |\n\n\n| 4th-5th Grade MCM |  |  |\n| --- | --- | --- |\n| To qualify for program placement, a student must meet criteria in 2 of 3 categories. |  |  |\n| SUBJECT AREA ACHIEVEMENT CATEGORY\u003Cbr>Must meet 1 of criteria measures | READING ACHIEVEMENT CATEGORY\u003Cbr>Must meet 1 of criteria measures | MATH ACHIEVEMENT CATEGORY\u003Cbr>Must meet 1 of criteria measures |\n| Report Card Proficiency Tri 2\u003Cbr>Report Card Proficiency Tri 3 | CAASPP ELA\u003Cbr>STAR Reading Fall\u003Cbr>STAR Reading Winter | CAASPP Math\u003Cbr>STAR Math Fall\u003Cbr>STAR Math Winter |\n\nDescription of Criteria  \nReport Card Proficiency  \nThe student’s proficiency across standards in Reading , Writing , Math , Science , and Social Science are used to determine an average.  \nNaglieri (NNAT)  \nThis non-verbal , culturally neutral test assesses general ability. It is a nationally normed , multiple choice test that is administered to all students one time in third grade. NAI , Naglieri Ability Index , scores between 90 and 110 are considered to be average. Scores between 111 and 120 are considered high average. Scores between 121 and 130 are considered to be superior. Scores of 131 and above are considered to be very superior.  \nSTAR Reading and Math  \nSTAR Renaissance assessments are nationally normed , computer-adaptive tests of reading and math achievement. Several times each year all students in grades 1-5 participate in the STAR Math assessment , and students in grades 3-8 participate in STAR Reading. Scale scores range from 600 to 1400 and are calculated based on the difficulty of questions presented to a student and the number of correct responses they provide. The highest score of the Fall and Winter administrations for each subject area are used as criteria measures.  \nCreative Writing Sample  \nStudents are asked to write a creative story in response to a specific prompt. Writing samples are evaluated by IUSD staff for use of language , divergent thought , and idea development across a 4 point rubric. Samples scoring a 0 provided no written response. The minimum score possible for a response is 1. The maximum score possible is 8.  \nCalifornia Assessment of Student Performance and Progress (CAASPP)  \nEach spring students in grades 3-8 and 11 participate in the state’s computer-adaptive CAASPP assessments in English language arts/literacy and mathematics. Scores included in the MCM review are from the student’s most recent CAASPP assessment. Further information can be found on IUSD’s Statewide Testing website.  \nupdated 7/23/202","cbCaiurb0TVmRdxG","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiurb0TVmRdxG","pdf",115670,"English","# IUSD GATE Screening Process 2025-2026\n## Eligibility and Placement Timeline\n## 3rd Grade MCM Requirements\n## 4th–5th Grade MCM Requirements\n## Description of Criteria","[{\"question\":\"When does IUSD conduct the GATE screening and how is it administered?\",\"answer\":\"IUSD conducts an annual Multiple Criteria Measure (MCM) screening for all students in grades 3–5.
