What is a Psycho-Educational Assessment?
A Psycho-Educational assessment consists of a battery of tests that will provide information on an individual’s (Ages 4-Adult) overall abilities (IQ), particularly learning style and information processing abilities, in addition to an individual’s ability to actively learn and memorize a variety of information. A comprehensive academic evaluation is also part of the assessment.

If you miss your appointment or do not give adequate notice of cancellation, we may not be able to reschedule because a whole day is a very big time commitment in our busy calendar and a number of children are usually waiting to be tested. Please be mindful of others. If you do need to reschedule please give us 48hours notice. Thank You
