The Florida Department of Education said the grades are meant to help people understand how well each school, and by extension, each school district, is serving students.
Grades are based on a points system that takes into account student achievement on tests for different grade levels and subjects, along with graduation rates.
Brevard, Lake, Orange, Seminole, Sumter and Volusia school districts all maintained “A” grades this past school year, which is based on a points system that takes into account student achievement on tests for different grade levels and subjects, along with graduation rates.
Flagler County improved its score from a “B” grade last year to an “A” grade this year.
Osceola County maintained a “B” grade, which it has kept for several years.
Marion County’s school district grade fell from a “B” to a “C.” In a news release, district leaders said the state had raised the grading threshold this year, and the district was only one point away from a “B.”
