Parent Volunteer Room:

Teachers have begun to put projects in the parent volunteer room to be completed by volunteers.  Please stop by to see if there is a project that you could help complete for our teachers.  The volunteer room is located in the Berry Pod, room 207.  Each grade level has a basket on top of the cabinets that they have put projects in for parents to complete.  Thank you for your time!

• The CogAT is the Cognitive Aptitude Test.  It is given to all third and sixth grade students in Douglas County School District as a means of gathering information about students' thinking.
• The CogAT measures verbal, non-verbal, and spatial thinking skills.  The scores help guide programming for students who may demonstrate different thinking styles.
• Students in grades 1, 2, 4, and 5 are eligible to take the CogAT through referral.  Teachers or parents are able to refer a child to take the CogAT.
• The scores are also used as part of a student's profile to determine eligibility for gifted programming.
• If you feel that your child should take the CogAT, please sign and return the paperwork by 4:00 pm tomorrow.
• Paperwork can be found at the very bottom of the GT page and accessed by clicking here.
