Purpose


To incorporate changes made during the 2022 and 2023 legislative sessions, and to incorporate technical edits to include the new statewide, standardized assessments. In the 2022 legislative session, SB 1048 (CH. 2022-16, L.O.F.) amended s. 1008.34(7), F.S., to require the Department of Education to align the school grading scale so that the percentage of schools that earn an “A,” “B,” “C,” “D,” and “F” is statistically equivalent to the 2021-2022 school grades results. In the 2023 legislative session, HB 1537 (CH. 2023-39, L.O.F.) amended the school grades formula to include a standalone grade 3 English Language Arts component for schools comprised of grade levels that include grade 3.
