What to Expect During an Evaluation

Evaluations last between 15-20 minutes per child for grades K-8, and up to 40 minutes for high school. During that time, I will look over the log and review the samples and materials in the portfolio. I will ask your student a few questions about their school year. These questions are low key and meant to give the student a chance to share fun things they remember, or show off any work they are particularly proud of.  For high school students, we may spend some time talking about credits, course planning, and graduation requirements. You and your student shouldn’t feel any pressure! Think of the evaluation as a celebration of your school year. Once the evaluation is completed, I will provide you with a signed evaluation letter. For seniors, I will also sign the diploma (and transcript if needed).
