Woodcock–Johnson Tests of Achievement

The Woodcock–Johnson Tests of Achievement are standardized, individually administered assessments used by psychologists and educational professionals to evaluate academic skills in areas like reading, math, and writing. Rather than a quick bubble test, a trained examiner works one-on-one with the student, selecting subtests that give detailed information about strengths, weaknesses, and possible learning differences. Parents appreciate the thorough, norm-referenced scores when seeking diagnoses, accommodations, or clearer guidance for remediation. The evaluation can be costly because it requires a professional, but for many families, Woodcock–Johnson results provide in-depth data far beyond typical school tests.
