Why Obtain an IEE?

  • Psychoeducational evaluations help to identify the individual's intellectual functioning status, unique learning style characteristics, present academic achievement levels, career/vocational interests and aptitudes, and social/emotional needs. 
     
  • Reports and consultations are tailored to provide clear, "user friendly" recommendations, which are targeted to improve the student's learning, attention, behavior and academic success.
     
  • Independent Educational Evaluations provide a practical, realistic read-out of the individual's strengths and needs which forms the basis for appropriate educational instruction and remedial intervention. 
     
  • Recommendations are provided in clear, non-technical language which is understandable to parents, teachers, physicians and educators.

  • Independent Educational Evaluations completed by Dr. Kay rely upon current research findings published by the National Institutes of Health and Human Services (NIH) specifying the best practice guidelines for diagnosis and intervention for those with learning disabilities and Attention Deficit disorders.  Evaluations are written to conform to State and Federal guidelines and IDEA 2004 regulations and guidelines.
     

    Here is what others have had to say

    "Dr. Kay's 1997 evaluation was thorough and specific and was clearly pitched, even more than to the Parents, to the District educators who could profit from and utilize the material therein. Dr. Kay's evaluation and recommendations, in fact, presented the District with a virtual blueprint for developing an outstanding IEP for Brian if it chose to take advantage of this rich and detailed diagnostic and prescriptive document generated at no cost to itself." PA Hearing officer B.H. vs. Cumberland Valley School District March 2000

    "I had some parents travel from the Richmond, VA area a month ago for an extensive evaluation and review of prior test history.  They said that Dr. Kay's assessment and feedback was the evaluation to end all evaluations and that their great regret was that they had not done it years ago.  They raved about her."  Peter W.D. Wright, Attorney at Law

    "Your reports are wonderful.  I am able to use them successfully 99% of the time.  It feels so good to get hugs from the parents and kids when school becomes manageable for them.  Keep up the good work."  Mary Lou Reaver, Executive Director, PA Tourette Syndrome Association

    "I consistently authorize a variety of Neuropsychological evaluations, psychological testing and therapy sessions through Margaret Kay for my clients.  Dr. Kay provides me with thorough, detailed reports, which include not only diagnostic information, but also specific information about any limitations which may affect my client's ability to obtain employment.  Her reports are a key factor in establishing OVR eligibility and appropriate service provision."  Beth Zakutney, Rehabilitation Counselor, Office of Vocational Rehabilitation

    "I can say without qualification that Margaret Kay provides the most comprehensive evaluation of any psychologist in our area...She has an excellent rapport with physicians who refer patients to her and communicates in detail...I have found her evaluations to be most thorough and insightful."  Robert J. Baird, M.D., Manor Family Health Center, Lancaster, PA

    "I want to let you know that Chris Shields and I have received nothing short of praise and appreciation about your presentation yesterday afternoon. I want to extend a big THANK YOU for the informative and practical ideas you shared. People liked your sense of humor, and the professional experiences you mixed in with your talk. I think it helped connect everyone together. Just wanted to pass along some good news! Take care".   Kathy Craven, Director of The Pilot School, Wilmington, DE 9/2002
