In the state of Minnesota less than half of students read at the expected levels. Understanding early signs of dyslexia can get your child support they need and actually rewire their brain's reading pathways.

Why is summer a good time to complete a psycho-educational or psychological evaluation? You have flexible scheduling options. You have time to prepare for meeting with the school in the fall AND the school has time to review and implement the recommendations.

You waited weeks for the school to evaluate your child. You sat in the meeting, listened to the school psychologist read through the test scores, and felt... unsettled. Maybe the results didn't match what you see at home. Maybe they said your child "doesn't qualify" for support, but you know they are struggling. Or perhaps they only tested for reading when you specifically asked about attention issues.
