Frequently Asked Questions
Do Florida homeschool students need testing every year?
Florida homeschool families operating under a registered Florida Home Education Program must complete an annual evaluation under Florida Statute 1002.41. This may be completed through a portfolio evaluation by a Florida certified teacher, standardized testing, or other approved options.
What tests are approved for Step Up For Students scholarships?
Step Up scholarships require a FL DOE approved norm-referenced test. ClearPath offers FL DOE approved testing including DORA Reading Assessment, ADAM Math Assessment, and Stanford 10 — all valid for PEP, FES-UA, FES-EO, and FTC scholarships.
Can Florida homeschool testing be done online?
Yes. ClearPath offers two testing options: (1) Parent-administered testing where you administer FL DOE approved tests (DORA, ADAM) to your child at home, or (2) Live-proctored online testing via Zoom where a Florida-certified teacher monitors in real-time. Both meet Florida Department of Education requirements.
How long does it take to get test results or a portfolio evaluation letter?
Test results and homeschool portfolio evaluation letters are delivered within 24-48 hours. You’ll receive official documentation meeting Florida’s annual evaluation requirements.
What’s the difference between a Florida portfolio evaluation and standardized testing?
Portfolio evaluation is a review of your student’s work samples by a Florida certified teacher — the most common option for registered Florida home education families under FS 1002.41. Standardized testing (DORA, ADAM, or Stanford 10) provides norm-referenced scores — required for Step Up scholarships and some private schools.
Do private school students need annual testing in Florida?
Private school students using Step Up For Students scholarships (FES-UA, FES-EO, FTC) are required to complete annual standardized testing from the Florida DOE approved list. Students can test at home (parent-administered) or with live monitoring via Zoom. Some private schools also require annual testing even without scholarships — check with your school.
