Does Athena Academy require standardized testing?

Athena Academy doesn’t ask for the usual stack of standardized test scores you might expect from other schools. Instead, they look for formal learning assessments that actually say something meaningful about how your child learns. Think WISC-IV, GORT-5, or the Woodcock-Johnson, tools that help paint a real picture of your child’s strengths, challenges, and learning style. These aren’t just scores on a page; they’re insights into how your child thinks. So no, you won’t need to prep for a multiple-choice bubble fest. But you will need to submit evaluations that give the admissions team a deeper understanding of your child’s unique brain and how Athena can support it.
