Kids who scored a 95% + on a math or reading EOG!

 We have had many questions pertaining to kids qualifying for AIG using only a EOG score.  A new AIG plan was written for 2022 - 2023 and now if a child scores a 95%+ we are to complete a "data dig".  All current report card scores, standardized tests, work samples STAR math reports, MClass, previous years EOG scores if applicable are applied to gain the points needed to qualify a child.

Here is a slideshow that explains the process in a bit more detail.  Please see me with any questions.
