This is a total win for PEP scholarship recipients! JoAn makes fulfilling scholarship testing requirements a breeze. The Exact Path test had simple instructions, was in-home, non-timed, and best of all the results were immediate without the hassle of mailing in test booklets like other state test options we have done in the past. It took about 45-60 minutes for my children (3rd and 6th grade) to complete each section of the Exact Path test, and they were able to take breaks when they needed by pausing the test. They also were able to test over two different days, making it a non stressful experience. JoAn processed my order quickly and was incredibly responsive when I had a question about submitting test results. We will be using this testing option again!

10/10 Recommend. From start to finish the process was nothing shy of timely and thoughtful. I have a child who is quite brilliant yet standardized testing seems to throw him through a loop. The meltdowns usually begin the moment he sees something foreign. The beauty of these tests is when I start to see him spinning I can walk over, shut the test down, have him take some breaths, hug him, remind him if he doesn't know to guess and move on, and when HE is ready start again. The results were nearly instant so he didn't have to wonder for days on end. I can't thank JoAn enough for her heart felt choices for our students.

A great experience all around for what I imagined to be a daunting task! JoAn provided a quick turn around time for our 3 children’s portfolio evaluations. Her process was streamlined and very easy to follow. I loved that I could submit everything to her digitally! Her website is a great resource and I will be using her again next year for sure! Thanks so much JoAn!

JoAn Stead is incredible! This was our first homeschool evaluation for our twin 15 year olds. We were not totally clear on how everything was supposed to work because it was our first review. JoAn Stead is extremely organized, friendly, helpful, and put all of our fears at ease. We really appreciate how easy she made this entire process and explained everything step-by-step. We also took longer than expected to get materials to her and she was super supportive and reassuring. She is a true positive energy and it was a pleasure to work together. Thank you!!

5/5 would recommend! JoAn was so helpful in helping me navigate our testing for the PEP scholarship. Because of life and illnesses we had pushed back our testing until right before the deadline. She was so helpful in understanding what to expect, and went above and beyond in getting me the test results on her end since I couldn’t view them from mine. She truly understands the testing and scholarship process and offered me great advice for the future!

100% recommend JoAn Stead, she helped me greatly when I was scared, because I didn't know how to fix my mistake and neither did other sources I was sent to prior. JoAn knew what to do! Thank you, JoAn for giving me a feeling of peace knowing I have an amazing source to go to that is knowledgeable in a lot of areas in the homeschool journey!

I joined this group last year. There’s a of great information in here but I must say that my best decision was to get private consulting from JoAn Rhoades Stead. I was able to get the answers to my questions fast and direct. I now have my 15 year old in his 2nd semester in both college and university, my 14 year started this week and we’re planning to enroll my 11 year old next year. What a way to avoid all the junk filler classes and get college/university credits for free. I highly recommend it. Best money I spent and comes out directly from StepUp Funds.

JoAn Stead, truly made this so easy, as a first time homeschooling family I was anxious about the end of year evaluation... wondering if we did enough if it was good enough even if we would get in trouble (I was clueless) BUT she made this so quick and simple and she is literally so kind. I recommend her to anyone and everyone!!!

I just had my first call with Florida Homeschool Evaluations by JoAn Stead and I’m so, so thankful that I took the step to reach out. JoAn listened to my concerns about using the PEP Scholarship for dual enrollment and gave me clear directions and next steps. I have been home educating for 15 years but this program is new to me. Now I’m well-informed to take the next right step with my children’s education. I’m so thankful for her services. Priceless! Thank you JoAn Rhoades Stead!
