Pupil Appraisal Services Falin Williams Pupil Appraisal Services are an integral part of the Lafayette Parish School System’s total instructional program. This department conducts evaluations of students to determine whether they are exceptional and in need of special education services. A comprehensive multi-disciplinary evaluation is completed by qualified examiners including, but not limited to educational diagnosticians, school psychologists, school social workers and speech pathologists certified by the State Department of Education.
Parental participation is essential in any meeting requiring a decision regarding their child in areas of identification and evaluation. Parents are participants throughout the pre-referral process. When an initial evaluation is conducted, informed parental consent is required. At that time parents receive an explanation of their rights concerning evaluation procedures.
