What is the district’s policy with regard to private testing?
Some families select private testing for a variety of reasons. They may test prior to third grade because they need more information about their child’s performance or may wish to do it prior to the stress that revolves around testing for GATE. Others tell us the child didn’t feel well the day of the test. For some, the child was very stressed in the testing situation or had difficulty concentrating in a large group. The GATE Office will accept private testing if, and only if, the examiner is licensed and administers all sections of the test and provides that data in the write up that is submitted to the GATE Office. No estimated or pro-rated scores will be accepted. It is also important to know that during the spring semester, CSUS’s Counseling and Diagnostic Center administers tests for a significantly reduced price. For information about that, contact them at (916) 278-6252.
