Welcome to Scores to Support, a space dedicated to making sense of the world of learning and development—without all the jargon. Whether you’re a parent trying to navigate psychoeducational testing, a teacher looking for practical strategies that actually work, or a young learner wanting to understand your own amazing brain, this is where understanding meets action. Here, you’ll find clear explanations of testing terms, honest guidance through IEPs and evaluations, and curated tools, books, and strategies designed to help neurodivergent children thrive. Our goal is simple: to turn data into direction, challenges into strengths, and endless “reinventing the wheel” into real, ready-to-use ideas that make learning a little clearer—and a lot more human.
If you’ve ever wondered why some people can hyper-focus for hours on a hobby but forget their laundry in the washer for three days, this post is for you. ADHD (Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder) is one of the most misunderstood—and most manageable—neurodevelopmental conditions out there.
When you’re trying to help your child succeed at school, figuring out the right kind of “diagnosis” can feel like navigating alphabet soup: IEPs, 504s, ADHD, ASD—it’s a lot. Parents often hear, “You need a diagnosis!” but rarely does anyone explain which kind or why it matters.Let’s break down the difference between medical and educational diagnoses in plain language—no Ph.D. required.
Psychological testing can be one of the most powerful tools for understanding how a child learns, thinks, and manages emotions—but it can also feel overwhelming, expensive, and deeply personal. This blog dives into the real-world pros and cons of psychological testing, breaking down what the process can reveal, where it can fall short, and how families can make informed decisions about whether testing is right for their child. Our goal is to take the mystery out of the evaluation process, highlight both its incredible insights and its limitations, and help parents, teachers, and students see testing as one part of a much bigger picture of learning and growth.
When a child struggles in school—whether it’s with reading, math, attention, organization, or behavior—parents often wonder why. Is it motivation? A learning style issue? Or something deeper? Psychoeducational testing is the process that helps uncover those answers.
