This type of evaluation starts by providing an IQ, which is an indicator of a client’s cognitive abilities. If you are seeking eligibility for a gifted magnet program such as Pineview School, achievement testing may be needed in addition to IQ.

Tara has been providing these evaluations in Florida for over 16 years. Tara will provide you with the most accurate representation of your child's intellectual and academic abilities. She will offer your child as many breaks as are needed and will speak with you about your child’s unique needs prior to the appointment. You will receive results within 1-2 business days and a report within one week. You will have the opportunity to discuss the results with Tara. The report is not shared with anyone else without your permission.
