Does your child seem to pick up new ideas instantly, breeze through assignments, or feel bored in class? These can be signs of giftedness—and without the right opportunities, gifted students may not reach their full potential.


At Hammond Psychology & Associates, we provide comprehensive gifted testing to help parents and schools understand a child’s abilities and create learning plans that match their strengths.


Why Gifted Testing Matters

Gifted testing offers more than just a number—it provides a clear understanding of a child’s intellectual abilities.
When students aren’t challenged enough, they may:

  • Lose interest in schoolwork
  • Develop frustration or behavioral issues
  • Miss out on enrichment opportunities

Testing can open the door to advanced academic programs, gifted placement in Florida schools, and extracurricular activities designed for high-ability learners.


Signs Your Child Might Be Gifted

While every child is unique, some common signs of giftedness include:

  • Learning new concepts quickly and with little repetition
  • Strong memory and advanced vocabulary for their age
  • Unusual problem-solving skills or creativity
  • Intense curiosity about specific topics
  • Thriving when given complex challenges

If these traits sound familiar, a gifted evaluation can confirm abilities and guide next steps.


What Our Gifted Testing Includes

Our gifted testing process is designed to be thorough, accurate, and child-friendly:

  • Cognitive assessments that meet Florida district requirements for gifted program eligibility
  • A supportive, low-stress testing environment to help children feel comfortable
  • Clear results and recommendations so parents can work with schools to advocate for enrichment opportunities
