Why Neuropsychological Testing is Essential for School Accommodations

Schools and testing boards require evidence that goes beyond generic symptom checklists. Our comprehensive pediatric neuropsychological evaluations provide objective, defensible documentation of ADHD, Dyslexia (targeting reading disability evaluation), or other learning differences, ensuring your child receives the supports they are entitled to.

• IEP Eligibility: Provides the objective evidence needed to demonstrate a Specific Learning Disability (SLD) in reading, writing, or math, or Other Health Impairment (OHI) for ADHD.
• 504 Plan Documentation: Supports essential classroom accommodations and academic success based on functional limitations.
• SAT, ACT, AP Exam Accommodations: Meets the stringent requirements of the College Board and ACT for extended time, separate testing, or other approved modifications (targeting SAT ACT accommodations testing).

Comprehensive Pediatric ADHD & Learning Disability Testing

Using a core-flexible neuropsychological model, our assessments are tailored to your child's specific struggles, avoiding unnecessary testing while ensuring diagnostic clarity:

• ADHD Assessment: Includes objective measures of attention and impulse control (e.g., Continuous Performance Tests or CPTs) alongside clinical interviews and rating scales (targeting attention deficit testing children).
• Dyslexia (Reading Disability): In-depth assessment of reading fluency, phonological processing, and decoding accuracy to pinpoint the source of the reading disability evaluation.
• Written Expression & Math: Specialized testing for Dysgraphia evaluation (writing/spelling) and Dyscalculia testing Florida (math calculation/reasoning).
• Executive Function: Detailed assessment of planning, organization, time management, and self-monitoring (targeting pediatric executive function testing).

This thorough method also helps rule out confounding factors like anxiety, emotional difficulties, or slow processing speed, ensuring accurate diagnoses and appropriate school accommodations in Florida.

Documentation for Standardized Testing Accommodations (SAT/ACT)

Testing organizations require highly specific documentation that often exceeds what schools provide. Our reports are written by a pediatric neuropsychologist to explicitly address the functional impairment, which is necessary to secure:

• Extended Time: The most commonly requested accommodation. Our reports objectively link slowed processing speed or attention deficits to the need for extra time (e.g., time and a half).
• Separate Setting: Documentation of auditory or visual distraction sensitivity.
• Computer Use: Clearance for using a keyboard or word processing software for essay portions when severe Dysgraphia is present.

We specialize in submitting documentation that meets the strict requirements of the College Board and ACT, minimizing the risk of application denial for standardized test accommodations neuropsychologist services.
