I don't yet have the information on percentiles, but I know the district aims for 179 in the fall for reading and math. We don't have GT in our district and I am wondering if I need to be looking for another district with more programs/opportunities. Are his scores as good as I think they are? Thanks for any help.

The 216 math is 98th percentile for fall 3rd grade. Keep in mind these are not off the new 2011 norms so the percentile will change accordingly. All that being said, these are great scores for fall 2nd grade. I would be asking for acceleration.
