Accurate and timely evaluations are the foundation of effective special education and student support services. At Educational Therapy Professionals, we provide comprehensive educational testing and evaluations to help schools and districts identify student needs, determine eligibility for services, and develop meaningful educational plans.
Our licensed psychologists and evaluators specialize in psychoeducational assessments and diagnostic testing that meet state and federal requirements. Whether your school needs help addressing evaluation backlogs or ongoing assessment services, we offer flexible solutions tailored to your goals.
What Is Educational Testing & Evaluation?
Educational testing refers to a range of formal and informal assessments used to evaluate a student’s cognitive, academic, emotional, and behavioral functioning. These evaluations help determine whether a student is eligible for special education services or accommodations under an Individualized Education Plan (IEP) or Section 504 Plan.
Key areas assessed in our evaluations include:
- Cognitive abilities (IQ testing)
- Academic achievement (reading, writing, math)
- Speech and language development
- Executive functioning and processing speed
- Emotional and behavioral functioning
- Adaptive skills and daily living functioning
- Social-emotional and mental health concerns
Our evaluation services provide the insights schools need to create data-driven, individualized support for students.

Why Educational Testing Matters
Educational testing and evaluations help school teams:
