How School Partnerships Work

A Flexible Assessment Model Built Around Your School’s Clinical Capacity

NVOX gives schools and districts two ways to use the same structured ADHD assessment framework.

Choose an NVOX doctoral-level psychologist for the final clinical review, or assign a qualified clinician from your own team to complete the review within NVOX.

In both models, information remains clearly sourced, the case is organized for professional review, and educational decisions remain with the school or district.

Explore the Two Review Models

Choose the Clinical Review Model

One Assessment Framework.
Two Options for Final Clinical Review.

Schools and districts choose who reviews the complete case, 

authorizes the clinical findings, and approves the final report.

Both pathways use the same structured NVOX assessment framework. NVOX operates within a clinical governance framework that includes MD oversight, while final clinical responsibility remains with the clinician assigned to the case.

NVOX Direct

NVOX assigns a doctoral-level psychologist with a PhD or PsyD and an active license in the state where the evaluation is provided.

The NVOX psychologist:

Reviews the complete case and available evidence

Examines differences between information sources

Determines and authorizes the final clinical findings

Approves the final report

Explains the findings to the parent or legal guardian

With appropriate authorization, the final report may be shared with the school psychologist or another designated student support professional. A professional review with the NVOX clinician may also be requested to discuss findings relevant to educational functioning and support planning.

Best suited for schools and districts seeking additional clinical capacity.

School or District 
Clinician Review

A qualified school or district clinician who meets NVOX eligibility and applicable state requirements reviews the case within the NVOX environment.

The designated clinician:

Reviews the complete case and available evidence

Examines differences between information sources

Determines and authorizes the final clinical findings

Approves the final report

Communicates the findings through the school or district’s established process

Best suited for schools and districts that want to use the NVOX framework while retaining final clinical review within their own team.

Schools and districts can select the model that best reflects their staffing,
professional capacity, internal policies, and preferred level of clinical involvement.

How Information Is Collected

Family and School Perspectives Remain Separate, 
Visible, and Reviewable

Parents and educators observe the student in different environments and under different demands. NVOX collects these perspectives through separate, structured processes so that each source remains identifiable throughout the assessment.

Parent or Caregiver Input

The parent or primary caregiver provides structured information about developmental history, daily functioning, concerns at home, relevant clinical history, and difficulties observed outside the educational setting.

School-Based Observations

The parent or primary caregiver provides structured information about developmental history, daily functioning, concerns at home, relevant clinical history, and difficulties observed outside the educational setting.

The school professional provides structured observations related to attention, organization, task initiation, work completion, regulation, participation, transitions, and supports that have already been attempted.

Available Documents and Prior Information

Relevant documents may be added to the record when available, including previous evaluations, clinical records, school information, and documentation of prior supports.

Assessment Evidence

Assessment task performance, functional information, behavioral observations, and other available evidence are organized within the same reviewable case record.

Parent and school information is not merged into a single undifferentiated narrative. Each source remains visible so that areas of agreement, difference, and missing information can be examined professionally.

Clinical Review, Family Feedback, and School Consultation

A Clear Path From Collected Information to
Professional Understanding

A Clear Path From Collected Information to Professional Understanding

Once the available information has been organized, the clinician responsible for the case reviews the complete record rather than relying on a questionnaire, score, or individual task result in isolation.

Complete Case Review

The responsible clinician examines the clinical history, functional information, parent and school observations, available documents, assessment evidence, differences between sources, and limitations in the available information.

Final Findings and Report Authorization

The responsible clinician determines the final clinical meaning of the evidence, authorizes the findings and recommendations, and approves the report.

Family Feedback

Through NVOX Direct, the NVOX psychologist explains the findings to the parent or legal guardian during a feedback session.

Through School or District Clinician Review, feedback is provided through the school or district’s established process.

Professional School Consultation

Through NVOX Direct, the school psychologist or another designated student support professional may request a professional review with the NVOX clinician when appropriate authorization is in place.

The discussion may address:

Through School or District Clinician Review, professional consultation is
managed within the school or district’s established process.

The purpose of professional consultation is to make the findings easier to understand and consider within the school’s process. Educational decision-making authority remains with the school or district.

Role-Based Access and NVOX Whisper™

The Right Information and Questions for
Each Professional Role

Access to case information is permission-based and tailored to the user’s professional role.

NVOX Whisper allows authorized users to ask case-specific questions and receive professionally grounded answers based on the evidence and clinician-authorized findings and recommendations within the record.

For School Psychologists and
Student Support Professionals

Educators can receive role-appropriate guidance focused on classroom functioning, information available to them, practical implementation, and areas for continued observation.

Example Questions

For Teachers and Educators

Authorized professionals can examine differences between sources, functional findings, the evidence supporting recommendations, and limitations in the available information.

Example Questions

Family Feedback and Report Access

Parents or legal guardians receive feedback through the process established for the selected clinical pathway. Access to and sharing of the report follow the applicable authorizations and the requirements of the school or district.

Educational Decisions Remain With the School

Clinical Evidence Can Support the Process Without Controlling the Outcome

An NVOX report adds clinical and functional context that may be considered alongside school data, academic performance, staff observations, previous interventions, the student’s response to support, and other relevant information.

The report supports the school’s process. It does not replace the school or district’s educational evaluation or decision-making responsibilities.

An ADHD diagnosis may provide important information, but it does not by itself determine eligibility for a 504 Plan, an IEP, services, or a particular accommodation.

The school or district remains responsible for:

NVOX supports professional review and educational planning. Each school or district determines how to consider a report produced through NVOX within its own educational evaluation and support process.
