questions about cognitive assessments of school age DLL students

[DANIELA MELGAREJO]

Hi everyone!

I am sorry if this is not the way to ask this question...but I know that some of you will know the answer and provide me with some guidance.

I am trying to help my district in Eagle County in improving evaluations for DLL students for school age.  

The questions are more about the cognitive testing that is done for school age students that are DLL or ELL? 

What role do the school psychologists play for evaluations for school age for students DLL? What types of assessments do they use and not use?

Is there a CO Bilingual school psychologist group (kind of like ours for SLPs?) that I can refer to our psychologist in my district to connect with?

Is there someone that I could connect with, that could help my district look at improving evaluations for DLL school age students? I remember there was a lady that a while ago did a presentation for us in one of our meetings...but I can't find her contact? Michelle? could that be?

Thank you so much for your help and information!!!

I think it was Margarita Cordero, a bilingual school psychologist from Denver. The Colorado Bilingual Network has a website with contact info here.
