3-4 years above grade level = HG
5-6 years above grade level = EG
above that = PG

Again, arbitrary, depending on the level of curricula your area uses but it fits my own personal definition better.


I think DYS looks for kids working at least 3 years above grade level, so this seems a bit high based on their standards. It also is problematic for kids who are 2E. But for my part, I'm all in favor of more tools for IDing LOGs rather than fewer. I think looking at where a child is operating makes great sense!
