Chesterfield County Public Schools is committed to recognizing and nurturing advanced academic potential in all students through engaging gifted programming options. Gifted evaluations take place during specific windows each year, and students may be evaluated only once per school year.

The online Gifted Services Referral and Review Form opened at noon, Aug. 22, 2025, for students in grades 2–12. Referrals may be submitted by a parent, teacher, student, or community member. 

Referrals must be submitted by the appropriate deadline. Please note the new fall deadline is earlier than in previous years.

  • Grades 2–12: Oct. 3, 2025

  • Grades K–1: Feb. 27, 2026

Students in grades 2–12 who reside in Chesterfield County but are not enrolled in CCPS may also be referred for an assessment opportunity during the fall window only.
