UPDATED - Meeting the Needs of Gifted Students:
A FREE Forum for Parents and Educators

Join Rhoda Rosen, Associate Director of the Center for Talent Development at Northwestern University, in an informative session to discuss the benefits of above-grade level testing as a critical assessment and planning tool for gifted students. Most importantly, Dr. Rosen discusses the myriad of interpretative and planning resources available once test scores are known. Her insights are valuable to any educator or parent committed to ensuring the development of an academically gifted child.

 

There will be three sessions in Michigan to discuss Northwestern University's Midwest Academic Talent Search (NUMATS). These sessions are excellent opportunities to learn about the benefits of NUMATS testing and answer any questions you may have. 

 

Anyone interested in learning more about above-level testing for students in grades 3-9 should plan to attend.  NUMATS testing is strongly recommended for students considering applying to GATE programs.
