This article is intended for Louisiana parents to understand the required testing to qualify for the program.
Students in the GATOR program are required to take a standardized test, such as LEAP, a nationally norm-referenced achievement test, or a nationally recognized aptitude assessment chosen by their school. Students with disabilities may be exempt.
Failure to complete the required testing could affect the student's eligibility for the program in future years.
