1. 2014 School Performance Grades
May/June FLDOE released results from the Spring 2012 administration of FCAT and the EOC assessments.
As discussed at the May Board meeting (and today) there were many changes to the states assessment and accountability systems since last year.
Now that all of the results have been released, we can determine what the impact is on our students, and school accountability.
These two issues are quite distinct … and so I will be reviewing the assessment results with an emphasis on the impact to students, after which Ms. Field will talk about the implication for school grades.
