 Once
your child’s testing session has concluded, you will
return in three weeks for your results session. (If you
are under a time crunch and need us to expedite this
results session, our Director of Administrative Services
will discuss with you your options in order to meet your
timetable).
At your results session, we will go over the results
together so that you will understand exactly what we
have learned, what we are recommending for your child
and how you are to proceed from here.
As part of this evaluation, you will get a lengthy,
detailed and individualized report that will be very
helpful to you. It will explore your child’s strengths
and challenges. It will use language that can be
understood by you, by educators and by other
professionals.
Your child’s report will include a review of all the
major areas of your child’s development and you will
know exactly where your child stands at this time. It
will also include a detailed discussion of the
following:
|
|
|
• Your child’s self-esteem and self-concept
• Your child’s emotional, cognitive and language
development
• Your child’s academic level
• Your child’s verbal and non-verbal skills
• Your child’s learning style, including strengths and
weaknesses
• Any fine and gross motor skills
• Any possible behavioral problems
• Your child’s developmental progress from an
educational and emotional perspective
|
But more importantly, any diagnosable problems that are
revealed will include practical, concrete
recommendations for addressing those challenges. Our
reports provide specific guidance to you, your child’s
teachers and any other professionals involved with your
child.
If we believe further evaluations are needed, we will
guide you through those suggestions as well. This might
include a speech and language, occupational, hearing,
vision or neurological evaluation.
Your report will also identify any appropriate
accommodations or changes in your child’s educational
setting which seem indicated. If your child is in a
public school setting, you will be able to take our
report to your school district to request an IEP, 504
accommodations or a special placement. For further
details about this, see the Follow Up(link) section of
this website.
