Home Education students are required by section 1002.41(1)(c), Florida Statutes to submit an annual evaluation of your student's educational progress to the school district. The statute provides several options for completion of the annual evaluation. One of the options that you may choose to meet his requirement is participation in the state progress monitoring (PM) assessments and/or End-of-Course (EOC) assessments.
Students participating in the Personalized Education Program (PEP) or the Family Empowerment Scholarship Program may participate in statewide assessments (per Section 1002.01, F.S.). Personalized Education Program (PEP) Program FAQs (click the link to view)
