Academic Course Enrichment (ACE) Acceptance Guidelines: Grades 1-5
Program Description
ACE is a once-a-week, pull-out program designed to support our gifted and talented students. Students in ACE spend time in a separate classroom where they participate in learning activities that are intended to stretch them as individuals. There are no grades attached to this program. Communication from the ACE teacher will focus on what students are learning in the classroom.
Grades 2-5—Students participate in ACE one full day a week throughout the school year.
Identifying Potential ACE Students
Potential students for ACE are identified in a variety of ways.
- School staff recommendations of current FLEC students
- Parent requests
- Documentation of prior gifted eligibility from a previous school. (These students do not need further testing.)
Process for Placement
- Parents are contacted for permission to administer the IQ test.
- Students are assessed by the Education Support Services (ESS) department.
- Test results are reviewed by the ACE committee.
- Parents are notified of the committee’s decision.
Criteria
ACE criteria is designed to look at the needs of the whole child. Consequently, grades and classroom performance are not the only criteria for acceptance.
- Gifted Rating Scale
- The GRS is filled out by the classroom teacher. It highlights five areas of giftedness: intellectual ability, academic ability, creativity, artistic talent, and leadership.
- School-wide Standardized Assessments
- DiBELS (K-2)
- NWEA Map (3-8)
- IQ Test
- KBIT—FLEC score requirements generally follow Seminole County guidelines for student acceptance into a gifted program. An IQ composite of 130 is considered gifted.
- Any other industry standard IQ test administered by the public school system, FLEC’s ESS department, or a private licensed psychologist.
- IQ testing must follow test guidelines in order to be valid.
Behavior
Participation in ACE is a privilege. All students are expected to exhibit positive behaviors in the ACE classroom. They must be willing to participate in all the learning experiences and contribute to the classroom environment.
