Gifted and Talented Education Services

RSPA's referral process for Gifted/Talented (G/T) services for the 2025–2026 school year is still underway. Parent referral forms and more can be found on our website below until October 6th.

*Please note GATE Testing is used as a universal screener for all students in grades Kinder & 5th, which took place September 3rd-5th. All other grade levels referred for GT testing will take place on December 2, 2025.

CODE RED?

Did you know that low attendance negatively affects student learning and student funding? RSPA's attendance rate recently took a nosedive to below 95%, so please make sure that your child attends school daily. It is imperative to their academic success and growth in school.

Scholars who miss only one day of school or less from September 4th to December 18th can participate in the 2nd Annual SNOW Day Perfect Attendance Party this December! Tap the flyer to see last year's SNOW Day recap!

Remember, students who miss 10 or more school days may receive an attendance behavior contract and could be subject to compulsory attendance laws. Also, 3 tardies are equivalent to one absence.

To view your scholar's attendance or grades, log in to your Parent Portal.
