Current Non-Public Second-Graders Must Register by Dec. 1 to Take InView Assessment

Second-grade students not currently enrolled in Wicomico County Public Schools whose parents/guardians would like them to be considered for the Magnet Program and the Thinking and Doing (TAD) Program for the 2015-2016 school year must register by Dec. 1 for the student to participate in the Dec. 10-11 InView, an assessment of cognitive abilities that includes verbal reasoning, sequences, analogies, and quantitative reasoning.

The assessment results will help the school system determine each second-grade student’s appropriate academic placement within the school system, including a student’s potential placement in the Magnet Program for the upcoming school year as they matriculate into third

grade. The Magnet Program is an accelerated learning program for students in grades 3 through 5. The results will also be used to determine students’ eligibility for the Thinking and Doing (TAD) gifted and talented program.
