I hereby grant permission for my child to apply to this program and to participate in the field trips sponsored by the Center. I grant permission for school officials to report my child's achievement and aptitude scores to MSC personnel. I understand that the teacher recommendations and test results will be maintained in confidence and that applications will not be returned to students. Also, I will allow my child to complete questionnaires designed to evaluate the program. I further permit my child to participate in media events designed to promote the benefits of gifted education.(R)
