There are many different types of evaluations. Schools can conduct psychoeducational evaluations (psychological and educational assessments). Neuropsychological evaluations are comprehensive evaluations completed by neuropsychologists. You can also have evaluations that are completed in various settings, in addition to schools, such as private clinics, hospitals or academic medical settings, university clinics, or more. Evaluations may be paid for out of pocket, by insurance, or part of the school.

Last week, April 23, was world book day. Reading is a wonderful activity, for leisure and learning. However, it does not come naturally and many students struggle to learn how to read. Here is a great tip sheet from NYSAN about dyslexia (what it is, what signs to look for) and breaking down information about evaluations!
