Brilliant

Educational Evaluation
Brilliant Minds’ Educational Evaluation assesses preschool and school-aged students’ general intellectual ability, broad and narrow cognitive abilities, academic domain-specific aptitudes, and related aspects of cognitive functioning.  Our educational evaluation consists of norm-referenced academic and cognitive tests along with numerous components such as review of students’ records, students/parent interview, classroom observation and other observational data/methods. With this assessment, the learning consultant is able to identify whether a student is performing on grade level / age equivalent or  falling behind in any cluster across academic domains. Academic evaluations are reviewed by the student's local school district's Child Study Team in conjunction with other reports as well as classroom achievements and accommodations to determine if  academic achievement and cognitive development needs exist and the student meets the criteria for New Jersey Special Education eligibility. A detailed written report, and outlined recommendations for the student is also shared with parents. All educational evaluations are conducted by a Licensed Learning Disabilities Teacher-Consultant (LDT-C), State of New Jersey Department of Education, Division of Licensure and Credentials.
