Giftedness Assessments

Gifted (or Gifted & Talented) Defined

Gifted students are those who have a very high level of proficiency in areas such as intellectual, creative, artistic, leadership, or in specific academic domains. The particular identification criteria for gifted students vary from school district to school district. However, in all schools the goal of this classification is to provide gifted children with school activities that are challenging and correspond with their high ability levels.

Giftedness Assessments

One of our professionals with experience in assessing levels of giftedness will conduct the evaluation, complete a written report that includes specific recommendations, and provide feedback. An ApaCenter assessment for identifying giftedness typically includes:

  • Review of developmental, medical, behavioral, and family history
  • Review of report cards, teacher feedback, and results from any previous standardized testing
  • Assessment of cognitive abilities using comprehensive, standardized measures (including verbal and nonverbal abilities, working memory, and processing speed)
  • Assessment of academic achievement in the areas of reading, writing, and math
  • Review of any already completed work that may be indicative of your child’s unique gifts or talents. This could include previously written work (e.g., poems, creative writing, etc.), artwork, and/or audio/video recordings of any musical or theatrical talents, etc.

Further evaluation in additional areas may also be necessary when suspected learning, emotional, behavioral, or attention problems are evident. Please contact us at (512) 891-1500 if you have additional questions or would like to set up an appointment.
