The main focus of my consulting services is completing educational evaluations for homeschoolers from kindergarten through 12th grade including special needs students.  I also offer other services including testing, transcripts and homeschool monitoring.

COVID-19 Update:  The governor signed, Senate Bill 751, which for Homeschooler will waive the 180 day requirement, waive the testing requirements for 3rd, 5th, and 8th graders, and waives the year-end evaluations.    (Homeschooling references are found on p. 32 under the code of 1327.1 references - for the 2019-2020 )

Please Note:  Affidavit and Objectives for the 2020-2021 school year needs to be filed by August 1st. The age for filing is now 6 years through 18 years (or graduation). If your child is 6 by the beginning of school (usually Sept 1st), you must file this year.  If they turn 6 sometime after the school year begins, then you can wait until next year.  If you have any questions about this, please feel free to contact me.

I am a PA Certified Special Education Teacher. I received a Bachelors of Science in Special Education and a Masters of Education in Computer Science from California University of PA. I am certified to work with all students from kindergarten through 12th grade. I taught three and a half years for the local Intermediate Unit before staying home with my own children. I have been evaluating homeschoolers since 1991. Currently, I serve over 200 families on a yearly basis. I homeschooled all of my own children. All five children have graduated.  Two of my children graduated from college and are teaching,  one is working at a retail store, one is attending ministry school, and the youngest completed vocational training and is working full time with an electrical company.  I am also enjoying being a grandmother to two awesome grandchild.  Happy to show you pictures if you ask!
