Candidates for the ALPS program will also have local percentile scores on the NWEA MAP Reading Assessment that are in the 80th percentile or above and/or SAGES subtest scores of 111 or higher.  \nMotivation  \nEvidence of motivation and task commitment will be noted in the teacher narrative and checklist on the ALPS referral form. In addition to the teacher's anecdotal description, depth, analysis, synthesis, and evaluation will be evident in the student portfolio products supporting the referral for students in grades 2-5.  \nCreativity  \nEvidence of creativity will be noted in the teacher narrative and checklist on the ALPS Referral form. In addition to the teacher's anecdotal description, evidence of the four characteristics of creativity which are fluency, flexibility, originality, and elaboration will be present in the student portfolio products supporting the referral in grades 2-5.  \nMiddle School  \nAt the middle school, students are ranked using Z-scores to determine the top 5% of the grade  \nlevel. Students' CogAt and NWEA MAP reading scores are used in order to determine the Z-score. Most successful candidates will have a minimum Verbal CogAT score of 120 and MAP reading scores at the 92nd local percentile or higher. Students whose scores do not quite meet these criteria but who have a strong teacher recommendation may be further assessed and evaluated.","cbCaielxj8efEVIg","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaielxj8efEVIg","pdf",323907,"English","# ALPS Eligibility for Grades 2-5\n## High Ability\n## Motivation\n## Creativity\n# Middle School Selection Criteria","[{\"question\":\"What CogAT score is required for ALPS eligibility in grades 2–5?\",\"answer\":\"Students must have a composite score of 120 or higher on the Cognitive Abilities Test (CogAT).\"},{\"question\":\"What MAP Reading Assessment and SAGES score criteria may also qualify candidates?\",\"answer\":\"Candidates need NWEA MAP Reading Assessment local percentile scores at the 80th percentile or above and/or SAGES subtest scores of 111 or higher.\"},{\"question\":\"How are motivation and creativity evaluated for ALPS referrals?\",\"answer\":\"Motivation and task commitment are documented in the teacher narrative and checklist, and creativity evidence includes fluency, flexibility, originality, and elaboration shown in student portfolio products.\"},{\"question\":\"How does middle school ranking determine the top candidates?\",\"answer\":\"Students are ranked using Z-scores to identify the top 5% of each grade level, using CogAT and NWEA MAP Reading scores; most successful candidates have a minimum Verbal CogAT score of 120 and MAP reading at the 92nd local percentile or higher.\"}]","The Clusters - Grades 2-5 - High Ability | PDF",1791199549]
