Abstract
Four indicators were developed to assess the Academic Skills construct: Child Behavior Checklists by the teacher and parent(s) (Achenbach & Edelbrock, 1979), the Wide Range Achievement Test (Jastak & Jastak, 1978) administered at OSLC, and standardized scholastic tests administered once a year at the school. These four indicators focused mainly on the boy’s skills in math, reading, spelling, and language arts.
