Duke TIP - TRMS Student Results
Duke TIP is a nonprofit organization dedicated to serving academically gifted and talented students. Duke TIP works with students, their families, and educators to identify, recognize, challenge, engage, and help students reach their highest potential. Now in its thirty-eighth year, the 7th Grade Talent Search identifies bright seventh graders based on standardized test scores achieved while attending elementary or middle school. Candidates are invited to take the ACT or the SAT college entrance exams as seventh graders, which allows them greater insight into their academic abilities. In addition, they gain valuable benefits and have access to unique resources for gifted students.
TRMS would like to recognize those students who qualified for state recognition. The honorees have earned an award by scoring approximately at or above the national average of recent high school graduates on at least one part of the ACT or the SAT. These students are invited to a special recognition ceremony held at a university.

Taylor Road MS would like to recognize those students who scored high enough to qualify for grand recognition. Students who qualify for grand recognition scored approximately at or better than 90 percent of recent high school graduates on at least one part of the ACT or the SAT. These students are invited to a special recognition ceremony at Duke University. Only about 4 percent of all the participants in the talent search qualify for grand recognition. This is quite an achievement!

TRMS Poets perform well in the Georgia Poetry Society Contest!
Congratulations to Michelle Ho who won 1st place for “Sophrosyne,” and Erin Suh who took 2nd place for “Insanity Bridge” in The Georgia Poetry Society contest. Their work will be published in The Reach of Song this summer, and each young lady will receive a cash prize.
For TRMS to take the top two honors in the state competition is momentous. Way to go poets!
