Independent Educational Evaluations (IEEs)
Clear, comprehensive evaluations that bring families and schools together to support each child’s success.
Advocating for Your Child’s Needs
An Independent Educational Evaluation (IEE) offers a thorough, unbiased look at your child’s cognitive, academic, and behavioral profile. Families may request an IEE at public expense if they disagree with a school’s evaluation or feel it didn’t fully capture their child’s needs.
IEEs provide deeper insight into learning, attention, behavior, or medical concerns and result in tailored recommendations to guide educational planning—helping families and schools work together toward the same goal: your child’s success.
