Special Education Evaluation Guide

Understand special education and your child’s special education evaluation to advocate with confidence. 

A special education (psychoeducational) evaluation can contain pages of unfamiliar test names, scores, charts, acronyms, and jargon, but understanding the results is essential to understanding your child and their educational needs. Special education as a whole can also be confusing. What does it involve? Does my child need it? What is an educational disability?

This Special Education (Psychoeducational) Evaluation Guide will help you navigate and make sense of your child’s evaluation, as well as helping you understand special education and how it looks in the public school setting. Through this guide, you will learn about special education, the evaluation process, the different areas assessed in an evaluation, how to interpret scores and terms, and how the evaluation findings can inform educational support for your child. 

You don’t need to be an educational expert to advocate for your child meaningfully, you just need the right information. This guide will give you information you need to understand special education and the evaluation process so you can confidently advocate for your child.
