Gifted/Talented Services (G/T) Referral & Appeal Processes

The processes on this page refer to all children who live within the MISD school district areas, whether or not they are enrolled in MISD.  We welcome the participation of the Midland ISD area educational options in our general referral periods. By participating in these periods, parents have early knowledge as to whether or not their children may participate in G/T services if they decide to enroll in an MISD campus.  The referral periods are posted here, on the MISD webpage, and on social media.  We are one of very few districts who do this outreach; the outreach is not required.
