• Gifted Identification and Placement

    • In Arizona, we identify students who are gifted as those who score at or above the 97th percentile in Verbal Reasoning, Quantitative Reasoning, and/or Nonverbal Reasoning on a test adopted by the State Board of Education.  Deer Valley pulls from the "Talent Pool" of 94th-96th percentile scores WITH documentation to support placement.  To learn more click here.
