Busy Season Is Winding Down Sep. 18, 2023
The busiest busy season ever in Florida home education evaluations is winding down. We are catching up on messages sent to us and we are getting evaluations done that were sent to us in the past 3 weeks as the numbers wind down. We brought in an experienced evaluator, Dana, who helped complete evaluations for us when the numbers became too much--she's been a valuable addition to our team.
We have plans in place to change some of our forms and processes in the upcoming months to make the process more efficient during the next busy season--especially in regard to questions about receipt of evaluations and other questions about evaluations as we were not able to keep that up this year as we have in the past.
If your deadline is here (or has passed or you've received a message from the district that says you've been removed from their roster), send an email to the district telling them that you are working with an evaluator and will get the evaluation to them as soon as you can. That will buy you extra time. We don't encourage lateness but there is nothing in the law that allows them to reject an evaluation for being late.
If you are terminating a home education program to sign up for the PEP or to enroll a child in school, you can send a Letter of Termination to the district's Home Education Contact and tell them an evaluation will be coming. You have 30 days to get it in.
If you decide to cancel an evaluation, please notify us first so that we don't spend time on that evaluation.
Thank you for your understanding,
