PEP - Homeschooling with $7,500 under Step Up For Students

Option 3 and 4 are for homeschoolers. Each option has different annual testing/evaluation requirements, so be sure to make sure that you understand the differences before deciding which homeschooling path to take.

Home Education under your county school district:

Typically, parents choose to have a certified teacher do a portfolio evaluation. Although there are other options available to meet the annual requirement.

PEP, Personalized Education Program

Parents must have their child take an approved standardized test each year in the Spring. I offer an approved PEP standardized test that can easily be taken at home from a computer or tablet. Also, the parent must fill out a student learning plan each year which is  a simple form indicating any areas of weakness/strength of their child.

Unique Abilities Scholarship

There also is another scholarship available to homeschool students who have an eligible disability. The Unique Abilities Scholarship is also offered by Step Up For Students. For more info or to apply for the UA scholarship click below.
