The Duke Talent Identification Program (TIP) offers enrichment opportunities for students who demonstrate advanced academic abilities. Students in 3rd through 6th grades who score at or above the 95th national percentile in select content areas on the TerraNova assessments qualify to participate in the Duke TIP the following year.
Based on the 2013-2014 test results, 46% of last year’s 3rd, 4th, 5th, and 6th grade students at The King’s Academy qualified to participate in the Duke TIP this fall. We are excited for an outstanding number of students to have this opportunity!
