Evaluation

After consent is signed and received, the Harrison County Exceptional Learners Cooperative has *50 school days to evaluate your child and hold a meeting to discuss the results.  

*Weekends and any breaks are not included in this timeline.  

Initial Evaluations

The Case Conference Committee (CCC) will include you and members of the school staff. Someone will chair the meeting and take notes. Sometimes, related service providers like occupational or speech therapists attend. Your child may also be invited. 

The evaluation will be tailored to your child's needs and areas of concern.  Assessment pieces may include:

• Social and Developmental History

• Psychoeducational testing

• Behavior Observations

• Rating Scales

• Medical Statements/Records

• School Records

• Teacher assessments and ratings

• Interviews

• Speech-Language Therapy

• Occupational and/or Physical Therapy

• Assistive Technology

Please provide the CCC with any outside assessments you want them to consider.
