How is placement in GATE classes determined?
All qualified students who request placement in a self-contained GATE class are rank-ordered first by their Total (Full Scale) Score followed by the higher subtest score. At the incoming 4th grade level, a minimum of the top 116 students will be offered placement. Any vacancies will be filled by the rank-ordered score from students on the wait list.
