2026-27 Enrollment Information
Leonardo da Vinci School for Gifted Learners provides the appropriate level of challenge for academically gifted students in a rigorous, student-centered and diverse learning environment.
Enrollment Details
Leonardo da Vinci School for Gifted Learners serves academically gifted learners in grades Kindergarten through 8th grade. All students seeking enrollment must complete the Naglieri General Abilities Test (NGAT) to determine whether da Vinci is the best fit for their learning. Assessment results will be emailed to families within two weeks of the assessment date, however, please be aware that the assessment results are not indicative of enrollment at da Vinci, they are a pre-requisite for enrollment. In June, a letter will be sent out notifying families if their student has been accepted into da Vinci, placed on a waiting list, or declined.
The first enrollment assessment will be on February 7, 2026, for students who reside or attend school within the Green Bay Area Public School boundaries. The second enrollment assessment will be May 1, 2026, for all students who reside within the Green Bay Area Public Schools District and outside of it. To request that your child be assessed for enrollment, please review the steps below:
1) Please complete the Assessment Request Form. This form will be available in late November/early December to sign up for the assessment date in February. This form will be available in February for those who would like to sign up for the assessment day in May. It is very important that the information on this form is accurate to ensure that your child receives the correct assessment. You will receive an email from Administrative Assistant Allison Bursik confirming that your form has been received. If you need to make any changes to your submission, please respond to that email. Do not submit multiple forms for the same child.
2) Please complete the Intra District Transfer Application (linked below) if your family lives within the Green Bay School District OR the Open Enrollment application (linked below) if your family lives outside of the Green Bay School District. Please ensure that you are mindful of the deadlines for each form. If one of these forms is not completed, we will not be able to assess your student. You will receive an email from Allison Bursik reminding you to complete one of these forms prior to its due date.
3) Assessment scheduling generally begins a week or two before the assessment date, so please ensure that you keep the entire morning/early afternoon open for you child's assessment on your requested assessment date. You will receive an email from Allison Bursik with your child's assessment time during that week (please do not be alarmed if it is later in the week). Assessments will all be taken at da Vinci and administered by a staff member. Your child does not need to prepare for the assessment or bring any materials aside from a water bottle if they would like one. If your younger student has never sat for an assessment before, it may be helpful to practice test taking.
Transfer Process Details
