The Crockett County Consolidated Common School District is beginning the referral process for Gifted/Talented (G/T) services for the remainder 2022-2023 school year. The district is committed to providing challenging learning experiences for students with exceptional intellectual and creative thinking abilities. According to the Texas Education Agency, a gifted/talented student is a child or youth who performs at or shows the potential for performing at a remarkably high level of accomplishment when compared to others of the same age, experience, or environment and who exhibits high performance capability in an intellectual, creative, or artistic area, possesses an unusual capacity for leadership, or excels in a specific academic field.
CCCCSD has transitioned to a fall referral window as recommended by the Region XV GT specialist in order to avoid an overload of testing days for students during the spring STAAR preparation and testing season.
Anyone wishing to refer a student attending Ozona schools in 1st through 12th grade can pick up or request a copy of the referral form at their school office beginning October 3, 2022. This form must be returned to the school by October 17, 2022. Those unable to go by the school office should call and request a form to be sent to them. Students now enrolled in Kindergarten will be referred in the spring semester for testing.
