Additional Evaluation Capacity for California Special Education Teams
District-commissioned initial eligibility evaluations, triennial reevaluations, defined backlog or overflow projects, and vacancy or leave support.
A defined first work package
Start with an agreed group of evaluations: clear enough to mobilize, measure and refine.
Scope
Evaluation types and disciplines
Volume
A confirmed package of work
Timing
Priority dates and dependencies
Built around existing district processes
Capacity matched to the evaluation work
Keystone is positioned as an extension of the district’s evaluation function: providing agreed delivery capacity while the district retains its statutory and IEP-team responsibilities.
Initial eligibility evaluations
Additional capacity for district-commissioned evaluations that inform the IEP team’s eligibility decision.
Triennial reevaluations
Reevaluation support planned around existing records, agreed domains and the district’s review process.
Backlog and overflow projects
A defined work package for confirmed outstanding evaluations, demand peaks or caseload pressure.
Vacancy and leave support
Flexible evaluation delivery when internal capacity is constrained by vacancies, leave or recruitment gaps.
A clear route from demand to delivery
Each project begins by defining what the district needs, what Keystone will deliver and what must be in place for the work to move efficiently.
Define demand
Confirm evaluation types, volume, locations and target dates.
Agree scope
Set disciplines, responsibilities, qualifications and dependencies.
Mobilize
Match professionals, release referrals and coordinate scheduling.
Evaluate and review
Complete agreed activities, quality review and reporting.
Handover
Return reports and findings for district review and IEP-team use.
Built for the teams responsible for evaluation delivery
School districts, charter schools, county offices of education and SELPAs can use Keystone for planned additional capacity or a defined operational need.
Special Education and Student Services
Directors and student services leaders who set priorities, timelines and service capacity.
Psychological Services and Lead Psychologists
Teams who own scope, quality, evaluator fit, workflow, referrals and review.
Compliance and Operations
Leads who need dependencies, evidence and delivery risk made visible before work begins.
Procurement
Contract route, insurance and commercial terms agreed in a statement of work.
Careful claims. Clear controls.
Our language focuses on the process Keystone can control, not guarantees that depend on the district, family or wider IEP team.
Appropriate qualifications
Professionals are matched to the agreed scope and applicable California requirements.
Defined responsibilities
The statement of work makes district and Keystone responsibilities explicit before referrals begin.
Quality review
Reports move through a consistent review process before handover to the district team.
District alignment
Templates, communication routes and delivery steps are fitted around existing procedures.
Independent Educational Evaluations
An IEE is a parent-initiated independent evaluation following disagreement with a public agency evaluation. Keystone keeps IEE referrals separate from district-commissioned evaluation capacity.
