Academic Assessment

There are many reasons you may want an Academic Assessment for your child.  It starts with knowing what an important piece of the learning puzzle an Academic Assessment is.  

​

An Academic Assessment is a like a roadmap.  It provides an objective, standardized measure of your child's learning. We offer different types of academic assessments that provide different information and we will work with you to determine the right one for the information you want to know.

​

You may want an Academic Assessment if:

• you want to know if your child is reading at age/grade level

• you want to find out for certain if your child is having difficulty with key areas like reading, listening comprehension and math.

• you've been told to get a psychoeducational assessment for yourself or your child and the waiting list is long (see our FAQs)

• you require documentation for accessibility services in university or college

• you feel your child is at risk for reading deficits

• you or your child are feeling anxious about how they are doing academically

• you are concerned about "pandemic lag" or your child's loss of learning time due to the pandemic and want to know what to do

• your child has experienced interruptions to their learning due to illness, time away, or other reasons 

• you want standardized and third party measurement of current schooling progress (homeschool, private or public).

​

• Two, details about one or more curriculum areas where your child is behind, giving you critical information on where to focus, strategies and how to start to help them.
