Parents should fill out the application, found on the Gifted and Talented website, as well as write a letter of recommendation for their child or children. Send the completed application to school with their child. The Gifted & Talented teacher will sign off on the application and return it to the student to take home.

Registration for West Suburban Summer School (WSSS) begins the third week of February. Classes fill quickly so interested parents should gather the necessary information ahead of time.

Students must have a CogAT score of 120 or higher or both FAST Bridge tests in the 95% or higher nationally. These scores needed for the application can be found in Skyward Family Access under "Test Scores". Our first graders may not participate in WSSS since we do not test students until second grade.
