Math Telescoping Exams -deadline is 3/8
Math Telescoping Exams
Testing opportunities for telescoping in math for the 2018-2019 school year are available in the spring and summer for GCISD students who are completing Grades K - 7.
The Math Telescoping Information Packet will be available on the district website under the For Parents and Students Directory by selecting the link for Acceleration Exams, Math Telescoping, Grades K - 7.
If you feel your student has demonstrated strong math achievement, consider having them take a telescoping test for next year's placement. If you aren't sure, talk to your child's teacher.
Parents will find information about the requirements to qualify for Math Telescoping and instructions about the TWO STEP Online Registration Process. There will be links to print the Information Packet, begin the TWO STEP Online Registration Process to register for the spring exams, view the TEKS on the TEA website, and download Study Guides for the exams purchased from UT-Austin.
