The system was not built for parents.

Getting a child evaluated for a learning disability is meant to be the first step toward support. For most families, it's where everything stalls.

6–9

Months waiting

Average school waitlist before evaluation even begins.

$4K+

Out of pocket

Private evaluations cost $3,500–$5,000 — insurance rarely covers them.

25%

Actually evaluated

Only one in four kids who need an evaluation actually receive one.

Marlee Strawn, Co-Founder of Scholar Health

I've sat on both sides of the IEP table.

I'm Marlee. I'm a mom — and for over a decade I worked in education, including as a school principal. I watched families navigate this exact struggle. Even parents who knew the system, knew the law, knew the right questions to ask — it was still confusing and exhausting.

For families without that background, it was even harder. That's why I started Scholar Health. We've supported 20,000+ students through Scholar Education. Now we're bringing that same support directly to families.

A faster, fairer, more honest way to get answers.

We're rebuilding the path from "something feels off" to "we have a plan" — across three dimensions.

Faster

Weeks, not months. We're using telehealth and digital tools to dramatically shorten the wait between a parent reaching out and getting a real evaluation underway.

More affordable

A fraction of the cost of traditional private evaluations. Our goal is to make this accessible without insurance gymnastics or thousands of dollars out of pocket.

More objective

Digital assessment removes the subjectivity of traditional evaluation. The result: a more precise, more consistent picture of what your child actually needs.

Honest answers.

Here's what parents ask most often before joining.

Is Scholar Health available right now?

Not yet — we're in development. Joining the early access list means you'll be among the first families notified when we open. There's no commitment and no cost to be on the list.

What will the evaluation actually cost?

Significantly less than the $3,500–$5,000 typical of private evaluations today. We'll publish exact pricing closer to launch — our goal is to make this accessible without requiring insurance approval or thousands of dollars out of pocket.

Where is this available?

Florida first. Our parent organization, Scholar Education, already supports 20,000+ students across the state, so this is where we have the deepest roots. We plan to expand once we've proven the model works.

What ages do you serve?

K–12 students. The evaluation process and the support that follows looks different for elementary, middle, and high school — and we're building for all three.

Who is behind this?

Scholar Health is built by the team at Scholar Education, led by Co-Founder Marlee Strawn — a former school principal and a parent herself. Our team has spent over a decade inside the special education system. We know where it breaks down because we've watched it happen.

Be first in line.
