Educational Psychological Evaluation (Ed Psych)
A full Educational Psychological Evaluation is required for Selective Studies classes and accommodations beginning in fifth grade. The evaluation cannot be more than 3 years old.
An Ed Psych is a comprehensive assessment of a student’s cognitive, academic, and socio-emotional functioning. Testing measures include a full-scale intelligence test, academic achievement tests, information processing tests, social-emotional evaluations, teacher surveys, and other measures depending on the specific needs of the student. Testing itself typically takes approximately 8 hours and can take 2 days to complete. Scores of all tests and subtests should be included in the final report. The report should also include specific academic accommodations based on the data presented.
