7th grade parents:
Tuesday, I sent home a packet with your child with information about Duke TIP. To get the packet they would have to qualify in two ways: 1-Score a 95%ile or higher on the Reading or Math EOG in 5th grade OR 2-Score a 95%ile or higher on the Reading or Math CAT test from 5th or 6th grade.
The packet includes a letter congratulating students on their accomplishment, a brochure, and a paper application. Duke TIP is based out of Duke University and they use this talent search to allow students in 7th grade who qualify to take the SAT or ACT. Depending on how well they do on either test, they could win national or grand recognition and/or scholarships for college. This is a great opportunity for your student, but it does cost to take the test. There are two testing dates for each test and two testing sites.
