This is an opportunity for parents to find out more about their child’s learning style, and gain knowledge to advocate for their child more effectively.
It also provides parents interested in applying for our school with an option to get the required assessment, without having to search for experts and schedule appointments.
On Assessment Day, we will be hosting a team of professional neuropsychologists who will be conducting WISC and WPPSI evaluations.
Join us, and chat with our admissions director and other parents while your child solves some puzzles and plays games.
Reservations are required so contact us today!

Why get an assessment?
Discover learning styles:
Some children are predominantly visual-spatial, others audio-sequential learners — and some a combination of both.
Some have a low, some a high working memory, some a slow and some a fast processing speed.
Knowing more about how a child perceives and processes information is a tremendous asset when it comes to supporting her or him to succeed in school and life.
Identify challenges:
Some students don’t know how to get started on their homework.
Some start many projects but struggle to finish them.
Some balk at spelling.
Others at long division.
Some understand a lot more than they can put into words… Indeed, it’s a myth that some students are universally gifted learners while others are not — depending on how content is presented, almost everyone struggles with one aspect of academic work or another (and most schools only serve one type of learner!) Evaluations can help parents and teachers identify where specific vulnerabilities in a student’s learning profile are; and how to address them early.
Notice girls hiding in plain sight:
Too often, bright girls do well in school but have lost their excitement about learning.
They are talented but have learned how to hide it.
They are learning to follow and blend in, not how to create and lead.
For these girls (and some boys as well!), evaluations can provide insights into their true potential and gifts, and how they could thrive in a learning environment that better fit their profile.
Build a team for each student:
Psycho-educational assessments allow parents to advocate for their children in new ways, and they assist educators in pursuing a deeper understanding of each student.
They provide important information, and a common language, as parents and educators, collaborate to ensure the academic and social success of every child.
