Home Education Evaluation Methods
A student in a home education setting must be evaluated once a year to demonstrate educational progress at a level commensurate to the child’s abilities. The parent/guardian selects the method of evaluation from those provided in the Florida statutes, then files a copy of the evaluation annually in the superintendent’s office.
The evaluation must consist of one of the following:
a. A Florida-certified teacher (certified in a core subject area) chosen by the parent may evaluate the child’s progress based on the review of the portfolio and discussion with the student;
b. The student may take any nationally normed student achievement test administered by a Florida-certified teacher;
c. The student may take a state student assessment test used by the school district and administered by a Florida-certified teacher, at a location and under testing conditions approved by the school district;
d. The student may be evaluated by a psychologist holding a valid, active license pursuant to the provisions of Section 490.003 (7) or (8), F.S.; or
e. The student may be evaluated with any other valid measurement tool as mutually agreed upon by the school superintendent of the district in which the student resides and the student’s parent.
