NWR: att teachers,counselors, etc.

Hey ladiess, hopefullly some of you will be able to help me. I am in my 2nd yr of grad school for school counseling and I am taking this testing and assessment class. Basically I hve to interview a few people who work in a school .. basically I need to know abou the way your school tests for special ed issues, what kind of assessments are used, who does the testing, etc. Its only a few questions but Im trying to get feedback from multiple schools to make my paper better.

Thanks in advance!

FM me any questions you have....i work in a special ed (NYCDOE district 75) school that is a multi-site program that works within day treatment and hospital facilities in queens. we have 6 psychiatric day treatment/ in-patient hospital sites and one multiple disability site (st. mary's hospital in bayside).

i love talking up my incredibly unique school with our super special students.
