If a student who was eligible and served for gifted education services in another Georgia public school system enters Coweta County Schools, he/she will be considered eligible for gifted education services as soon as verifying eligibility information is received from the sending system and the student meets the criteria for continuation of gifted services established by Coweta County Schools.

There is no mandated reciprocity between states unless the student is a dependent of military personnel as provided in O.C.G.A. § 20-2-2140 et. seq.

If a student was eligible and served for gifted education services in another state, that student will NOT have reciprocity. He/she will be evaluated for gifted services based on Georgia criteria as outlined in State Rule 160-4-2-.38 within 45 school days of enrollment. Any standardized test scores in his/her previous records that are less than two calendar years old and that are on the list of approved assessments for Georgia are valid and should be used in helping determine eligibility.
