Partner Talk: Psychoeducational Assessments
Psychoeducational assessments offer valuable insights into a student's cognitive strengths and challenges, helping families and school teams support a student’s academic success. These assessments can inform IEP development, identify exceptionalities, and guide classroom supports tailored to the student’s needs. Teacher input through questionnaires also contributes to a comprehensive student profile. In this discussion, we’ll review the assessment process and highlight common support strategies based on different student profiles.
Presented by: Dr. Avraham Grunbeger, Clinical Director, and Alison Tryl, Administrative Team Lead

Topic: Learn to love your insurance policy…Really!
