NHE March Parent Gathering - Year End Evaluations
One of the most common concerns surrounding homeschooling is the keeping of records. How long do I have to keep records? What do I need in my portfolio? Is a high school portfolio different? What do I turn in to my county school district and when?
In the state of Florida, homeschooling families registered with their counties are required to submit an evaluation each year. According to FPEA.com, the home-education law provides five evaluation options:
- An individual evaluation by a Florida-certified teacher of your choice.
- Any nationally normed student achievement test administered by a certified teacher of your choice.
- A state student assessment test.
- A psychological evaluation.
- Any other method mutually agreed upon by the parent and the superintendent.
Come out to this meeting to see examples of portfolios that homeschool families have put together and to discuss other methods of fulfilling the state requirements for annual evaluations. We’ll round out the evening with a time of Curriculum Sharing. Bring a favorite homeschooling curriculum, tool, resource, or idea to share with others.
Meet other homeschooling parents, learn what you need to fulfill state requirements, and go home with a few ideas for resources you can use.
This gathering is open to the public. Invite your friends!
