Students that score 3.5 and above on the FCAT Writing essay have scored at or above a minimally acceptable level. The Florida Comprehensive Assessment Test® (FCAT) is based on Florida's curriculum frameworks, the Sunshine State Standards.
+Indicates data is not available at this time.
‡The State did not begin compiling State Percent Scoring 3.5 and Above data until 2002.
The table below provides the School mean Scale Scores in Reading, Mathematics, Writing and Science. The Scale Score is a score used to report test results on the entire test. Scale Scores on the FCAT Sunshine State Standards tests range from 100 through 500 for each grade level and content area. A computer program is used to analyze student responses and to compute the Scale Score.

Note: FCAT Writing+ was administered from 2006 – 2008. In 2009, the multiple-choice items were removed from the statewide writing assessment; therefore, the test name was changed back to FCAT Writing, and Scale Scores are no longer reported for the statewide writing assessment.
The table below provides the School average Developmental Scale Score (DSS) in Reading and Mathematics for FCAT and the change in DSS score since last year. The DSS is a score used to determine a student's annual progress from grade to grade. The FCAT Developmental Scales for Reading and Mathematics range from 86 through 3008 across grades 4 through 10.
Note: Matched DSS data cannot be generated for grade 3 because it is the first year that students take the FCAT.
The tables below provide a School summary of FCAT Reading, Mathematics, Writing and Science, including the percent scoring in each Achievement Level. For FCAT Reading and Mathematics, the data includes the number of students tested, mean Scale Scores, mean Developmental Scale Scores, and the percentage of students scoring in each achievement level. There are five categories of achievement that describe the success students have with the content tested on the FCAT Reading and Mathematics. Level 5 is the highest, and level 1 is the lowest. Levels 3 and above are considered on or above grade level. Writing is assessed in Grades 4, 8 and 10. Writing mean essay scores combined are the result of combining the average scores for each type of writing assessed. Students in Grade 4 write either an expository or narrative essay, whereas students in Grades 8 and 10 respond to an expository or persuasive writing prompt.
* No data is reported when fewer than ten students were tested.
** Adding the percents in levels 3 – 5 may not result in the percent reported under "Level 3 and above" due to rounding.
