Becoming A Student
Every prospective student undergoes an Academic Assessment to define their unique learning profile.
Our Academic Assessment includes
One Pre-Instruction Academic Assessment
One Post-Instruction Academic Assessment
Written Reports for both assessments
Private Consultation providing personalized plan and targeted outcomes
The Academic Assessment is extensive and thorough, lasting 3 ½ to 4 hours and includes subtests that assess a child’s reading, spelling, math, comprehension, and oral language.
The Academic Assessment costs $400. If your child is enrolled for instruction after the assessment - $200 of the assessment fee will go towards fees.
Prior to your child’s Academic Assessment, we ask that you fill out our Client information form.
