Is Anyone In School?
With K-12 school attendance in a state of flux due to COVID 19, we are wondering if anyone is back in school full time or even part time. We would like to hear from you if you work at or know of a school where children are receiving in-person instruction at least 50% of the time. We are looking for schools where we might collect standardization data for new rating scales that are being developed, but we need subjects who are actually attending school.

Have You Tried Teleassessment?
With so many students out of school and referrals piling up, many practitioners are considering remote testing (teleassessment). This raises many issues and concerns. To address these, the School Neuro Psych website is offering a special, free Teleassessment webinar.
Not Able to Test Remotely?
If you are not able to directly test students remotely with traditional, performance-based tests, then Rating Scales that have been standardized for online assessment are an option you might consider. Schoolhouse Educational Services offers several scales that can be used for online assessment:
