The purpose is to amend the current rule by eliminating the restriction on the allowed number of testing attempts for students, revising retest provisions, ensuring student privacy protection of Florida Postsecondary Education Readiness Test (P.E.R.T.) records and scores, and recognizing the public high school transcript as an official record of P.E.R.T. scores. The effect is to accommodate the expanding uses of P.E.R.T. at the public high school level for demonstrating college readiness, for meeting initial eligibility for Dual Enrollment status, and for initial qualifying for Florida Gold Seal Vocational Scholarships; to ensure the protection of public student privacy rights; and to allow public high school transcripts to serve as official documents for P.E.R.T. scores. It also establishes policy for alternative remediation and retesting, as required in statute.
