Educational assessments are valuable tools that can assist in setting your child up for success. They can be used to determine if your child’s skills are developing at a rate commensurate with their same-aged peers. Further, educational evaluations pinpoint students’ areas of strength and challenge. The results can help parents and guardians make educated decisions about targeting areas of need and are useful at school conferences and IEP meetings.
