Guidance and Counseling  \nVI. Professional Development  \nVII. Program Evaluation  \nHigh Ability Belief Statement  \nWestern Boone County Community Schools are a partnership of school and community that ensures each child has the opportunity to maximize personal academic growth in a safe learning environment. The school and community recognize that not all children learn at the same rate. Some children possess the ability to learn at an advanced level in areas of general aptitude, language arts, and math. We recognize that children who possess advanced intellectual capabilities come from various cultural, ethical, and socioeconomic backgrounds. The corporation will provide curriculum that meets the academic, social, and emotional needs of all students.  \n Student Identification and Qualification  \nA. Multi-Faceted Identification Process  \nWestern Boone employs a multi-faceted identification process to identify high ability learners.  \nThe following measures will be used to identify students as high ability:  \n\n| Grade(s) | Achievement | Aptitude | Qualitative/Observational\u003Cbr>Assessments | Additional Information/Alternate\u003Cbr>Assessments Considered |\n| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |\n| K-2 | NWEA MAP Growth\u003Cbr>Reading/Math | CogAT | Kingore Observation Inventory | Terra Nova\u003Cbr>(administered as needed) |\n| 3-6 | ILEARN Checkpoints; NWEA MAP Growth Reading, Math\u003Cbr>(administered as needed) | OLSAT | Kingore Observation Inventory | Terra Nova\u003Cbr>(administered as needed) |\n| 7-8 | ILEARN Checkpoints; NWEA MAP Growth Reading, Math\u003Cbr>(administered as needed) | OLSAT | Kingore Observation Inventory | Terra Nova\u003Cbr>(administered as needed) |\n| 9-10 | NWEA MAP Growth\u003Cbr>Reading, Math | OLSAT (9th)\u003Cbr>PSAT (10th ) | SIGS |  |\n| 11-12 | NWEA MAP Growth\u003Cbr>Reading, Math | PSAT\u003Cbr>SAT | SIGS |  |\n\nStudents who score at or above the 90th percentile in three of four areas (reading achievement, math achievement, aptitude, and/or demonstrate sufficient evidence of gifted characteristics on a Kingore observational assessment) are identified as high ability learners.  \nHigh Ability Programming  \nAll students in grades kindergarten, two, and five will participate in an approved aptitude assessment to determine likelihood of giftedness. Based on the results of the aptitude assessment, students will be considered for additional assessments to evaluate for potential high ability identification. Parents of students selected for further evaluation will be notified and will be provided an opportunity to permit or decline additional testing for high ability identification.  \nIn addition, students may be considered for evaluation with a teacher or parent request, or if the student is a new enrollee whose previous school records indicate that the child was formally identified as a high ability learner at the school where the child was previously enrolled.  \nIf a student does not meet the qualification criteria to be identified as high ability, a teacher or parent may submit a formal appeal in writing using the Appeal for High Ability Identification Form available from the school principal or high ability coordinator.  \nB. Appeal Process  \nParents or teachers who wish to appeal a student’s high ability identification may do so by obtaining an appeal form from the building principal or high ability coordinator and returning it to the classroom teacher or high ability resource teacher. Additional student data will be considered during the Appeals Committee meeting. A minimum of three (3) certified members of the BBPC will meet to review the appeal packet and determine if sufficient evidence exists to support a formal high ability  \nidentification.
