Mexia Independent School District is in the process of accepting nominations for

students who would benefit from the special instructional techniques provided by

its Gifted and Talented program.  Student nominations from parents, teachers and

community members will be accepted from January 19 through January 27.  If you

know of a student in grades K through 12 who you believe “performs at or shows

the potential for performing at a remarkably high level of accomplishment

academically,” you are encouraged to nominate that student to be assessed for

possible placement in the  Gifted and Talented program. The student nomination form

may be obtained from the school counselor.  If nominating a student, the form must be

completed and returned to the campus counselor no later than January 27.  Forms will not be

accepted after January 27. 

For nominated students who have parental approval, testing will

occur during the semester. Qualifying students in Kindergarten will be placed in

the program by March 1.  Students who qualify in grades 1-11 will be placed in the

program during the next school year.
