When an exit from the program is considered, the School Guidance Team convenes a meeting to review the student's profile in order to determine if an exit from the Highly Capable program should be recommended to the district Multidisciplinary Selection Team (MST).
The district MST reviews student performance data each Spring, considers appropriateness of student placement, and plans for transition of services based on the student needs. The MST determines whether or not a student's needs are best met with highly capable programs services based on assessment data and classroom performance.
Parents may choose to exit their student from the program temporarily or permanently. If you are interested in information regarding exiting your child from the Highly Capable Program, please contact us at hicap@nsd.org.
As a friendly reminder, Monday, Jan. 30 is a non-student day for all students in the Northshore School District. During this non-student day, our educators will be working to finalize student grades for the first semester. We look forward to seeing our students back at school on Tuesday, Jan. 31.
