Psycho-educational Evaluation

The admission procedure for the Lighthouse Point Academy Lower School (Grades 3-5) and Upper School (Grades 6-12) requires a complete psycho-educational evaluation. The evaluation enables the LPA admission committee to determine the appropriateness of our program for your child.

If a complete psycho-educational assessment has not been completed, please ask us for assistance and a referral. The assessment must include the following detailed subtests: 

• Results of a diagnostic interview, which includes cognitive testing and achievement testing. 
• Measures of information processing: These instruments should evaluate working memory, short and long term memory, processing speed, auditory processing, and graphomotor skill and automaticity. 
• Assessments to rule in or out Attention Deficit Disorder, with scores that reflect both objective and subjective criteria. Examples are: BASC2, Acters, Conners, Gordon Diagnostic and TOVA. 
• Results must include a specific diagnosis and actual test scores using standard and percentile scores.

How to Apply

• Schedule a personal interview to take place on campus. Parents may arrange to speak with a representative of the faculty or administration while their child is being interviewed.
• Submit an online application
• Pay the non-refundable application fee of $150.00
• Submit one Head of School Recommendation and one Teacher Recommendation (required for grades 6-12). A principal or assistant principal may complete the Head of School Recommendation Form.
• Provide a copy of the student’s birth certificate.
• Provide current academic records. We require copies of report cards, including current mid-year grades and last year’s grades, along with a record of standardized testing for the past year from the current school. A Request for Records Form is provided for your convenience below.
