The Gifted Rating Scales (GRS) has been trusted for decades to identify children for gifted and talented educational programs. In the upcoming year, MHS will make available a newly-revised and updated version of the instrument, the Gifted Rating Scales Second Edition! The GRS 2 will now include a set of new parent rating scales to allow for a system of triangulated assessment and an online administration system.
Together, the updated instruments will offer a comprehensive screening system for students ages 4 years through 18 years and 11 months of age. The online format will allow for quick and efficient screening, with comprehensive reporting and multi-rater reports.
