High school students typically don’t test for HiCap services as MIHS provides open enrollment for courses and students can select the level of rigor and challenge in their areas of interest without the need for qualification.

Where Are Services Provided?

  • Students who qualify for Primary Enrichment Services (PES) will receive services within their regular classroom from their teacher. (Please note that all teachers have access to PES materials and can provide them to students who have not qualified, but who demonstrate a need for enrichment, rigor, depth, complexity, etc.)
  • Students who qualify for Code 32 Highly Capable Services (HiCap 32) will receive services within their regular classroom from their teacher. They will be clustered in classes with students who have a similar ability/aptitude in their area(s) of qualification.
  • Students who qualify for Code 33 Highly Capable Services (HiCap 33) will receive services in a unique classroom.

Grade 3: Lakeridge
