Enroll in a Homeschool Evaluation

What are my legal responsibilities as a homeschool parent in Seminole County Florida?

  1. Submit your notice of intent to the Superintendent in Seminole County.
  2. Maintain your portfolio.
  3. If necessary, Make your portfolio “available for inspection by the Seminole County superintendent or the superintendent’s agent, upon 15 days’ written notice.”
  4. Submit an annual evaluation to the  Seminole County Superintendent. One option for an annual evaluation is a Portfolio Assessment. I am a certified teacher since 1995. I started my teaching career student teaching in an Elementary School Special Education class. I taught Middle School and High School Math and Computer classes. In a homeschool coop I taught preschool through 3rd grade students. I have tutored Math and computers privately for 30 years. Most importantly, I homeschooled my children.  Each of my three boys graduated from high school with over 50 college credits.    I would be happy to review your child’s portfolio and certify that they made progress commensurate with their ability.
