Initial Consultation
During this stage of the process we will listen to and respect parents’ and families’ experience, history, values, goals, culture and resources.* As part of our information gathering we will review past and recent grade reports as well as standardized testing and any prior psychoeducational evaluations.
With your authorization, we will also talk with appropriate individuals/professionals who know your child to gather information before making school recommendations. Throughout this time we’ll begin to understand and appreciate the unique characteristics of your child and will work to fully explain the school admissions process to each family (for example, the schedule of standardized tests, testing options, application deadlines, etc.)
*We are qualified and experienced in working with children with special needs. We also welcome English-speaking International families.
