Achievement is the share of tested students who scored on grade level on the state’s tests. Florida grades every public school A to F from those test results, students’ learning gains, science and social studies results and, for middle and high schools, acceleration and graduation measures, the columns of the state’s file show. For a elementary school, A is 62% of possible points or more, B is 54% to 61%, C is 41% to 53% and D is 32% to 40%, the file says.
The full report card, with test results by subject and student group, is on the state’s school report card for Freedom Shores Elementary. It is an interactive dashboard; the figures above come from the state’s downloadable file, linked from its school grades page.
