Gifted Issues Discussion homepage Forums General Discussion DYS application

is in.Let the wait begin. I'm pretty positive they will ask for more information as I only had the letter the school district sent us with his scores.

Ours are in this month too (for DD9 and DS8). I've procrastinated them for more than a year because their scores are just barely below the cut off (3 points for DD, 4 for DS). Extremely anxious to find out what they say.

good luck!

We just sent our application in. Have you heard back yet? Wondering if it takes the full month.

any news? We were 4pts below but got denied. We will try re-applying with more supplemental information and better portfolio.

We got requests for more information for both kids. I haven't resubmitted yet... waiting on a neurologist appointment for DS and DD is taking a CTY writing class this summer, so I'm hoping to use some of that writing for her portfolio.

Ds12 is in. We received the email on Monday. He had qualifying scores.

Good luck. We hope to re-apply in a little while. We may do a CTY class also, and see how that goes. He’s only second grade so his school work doesn’t show his level appropriately. Especially since his handwriting is so poor.
