We will accept spring referrals for evaluation for Hanover County Public Schools gifted education through Tuesday, January 31.

In order for a student to be considered for the gifted program, they must first be referred for evaluation. A referral can be initiated by:

  • a parent
  • a teacher
  • a peer
  • a community member
  • by the student

Elementary School (K–5) Referrals

If you would like to refer your child (grades k–5) for testing, please talk to your child’s teacher. Classroom teachers should be part of the communication process as they will be required to submit work products. After discussing the referral with the classroom teacher, please send an email to your elementary gifted resource teacher to begin the referral process. Please include your student’s first and last name and their classroom teacher’s name in your message. See below for a list of contacts.

Middle School (6–8) Referrals

Please send an email to your middle school gifted resource teacher to begin the referral process. Please include your student’s first and last name in your message.

High School (9–12) Referrals

Please send an email to Andrea Herndon, coordinator of gifted education and advanced studies, to begin the referral process.

Questions

If you have any questions about the referral process in general, whether you should refer your child or general testing questions, please feel free to send those inquiries to your gifted resource teacher.

Online Learners

Online families should reach out to their home school gifted resource teacher to begin the referral process and for any questions about the process in general.
