Saint Paul Public Schools uses a test called the Naglieri Non-verbal Ability Test (NNAT) to identify students who are eligible for gifted services within the school district.

All Saint Paul Public Schools students in kindergarten and second grade who attend Saint Paul Public Schools will take the NNAT for one hour on one day at their school during the week of December 1st-8th. Students in grades 1, 3, 4 and 5 may also be nominated by their teachers and or parents to take the test based on their need for gifted services.
