Parent: My child tested last year and qualified as G/T, why do they need to be re-tested?
Me: Yes, I can see that; however, they I do not see that they ever enrolled in a district school. Are they currently attending private school?
Parent: Yes.
Me: District rules allow a student six months from identification to enroll in a district school for services, otherwise they are not considered G/T and must re-test.
Parent: Ah ha! We were notified just five months ago! They should still be G/T!
Me: They would be, if they were in a district school. Are you going to enroll them in a district school before the end of the month?
Parent: No.
Me: Then they are going to need to be re-tested.
