Upon referral, the parent\/guardian is notified of parental rights and written permission is obtained to begin the TAG identification evaluation process which includes a collection of both qualitative and quantitative data to form a comprehensive Body of Evidence. No individual piece of evidence will qualify or disqualify a student for a TAG identification.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
