(cyber evaluation)<\/p>\n<p>I was bothered by evaluators charging WAY TOO MUCH, even up to $80 and $200+, for a simple portfolio review?<\/p>\n<p>I do a lot of annual educational evaluations in Marion County. I am Charles &#8220;Curtis&#8221; Tucker. I have been a homeschooling parent since 1999, a Florida certified teacher since 1996, and I have been a homeschool evaluator and approved test administrator for Marion County since 2003. I am <strong>currently<\/strong> a Florida certified teacher with a Florida State Department of Education certificate which <strong>will be renewed again, as always, on June 30, 2027<\/strong>. Scroll Down for more detailed information.<\/p>\n<p>I do the Annual Educational Evaluation in Marion County, FL just as required by the FL state ss. 1002.41 (see below), through emails (Cyber Evaluations), or the U.S. Postal service, OR I will do the Annual Evaluation in person if you prefer &#8211; SIMPLE &amp; QUICK annual homeschool evaluations. C. Curtis Tucker 786-525-3545 cell<\/p>\n<p align=\"left\">FL ss. 1002.41 Home education programs.\u2014<\/p>\n<p align=\"left\">&#8230;(c) The parent shall provide for an annual educational evaluation in which is documented the student\u2019s demonstration of educational progress at a level commensurate with her or his ability. The parent shall select the method of evaluation and shall file a copy of the evaluation annually with the district school superintendent\u2019s office in the county in which the student resides. The annual educational evaluation shall consist of one of the following:<\/p>\n<p align=\"left\">1. A teacher selected by the parent shall evaluate the student\u2019s educational progress upon review of the portfolio and discussion with the student&#8230;<\/p>\n<p align=\"left\">And then the statute goes on to give the other 4 choices for annual evaluations, describing types of tests administered by a FL certified teacher, like myself. I also administer standardized tests of many types, though a test is NOT required for the annual educational evaluation for a homeschool student, it is one of the choices.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<h5><a href=\"https:\/\/homeschool-evaluations.com\/blog\/evaluation_request\/\"><strong><u>To Get Started &#8211; Click Here<\/u><\/strong><\/a><\/h5>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The Annual Educational Evaluation done by email, U.S. Post, computer or phone conversation (Cyber Evaluation) is only $37.<\/p>\n<p>The Annual Educational Evaluation done in person is $47 for the 1st student &amp; $30 for each additional student at the same location on the same day.<\/p>\n<p>Email me &#8211; <strong>CCTucker7@gmail.com<\/strong> &#8211; with any questions.
