Wakulla County Superintendent of Schools David Miller Makes A Honor Roll for Overall District Grades

{sidebar id=1}With final results in for the 2006-2007 Florida Comprehensive Assessment Test (FCAT) and the calculation of school grades completed, PAEC is proud to announce that 50% of its member districts made the honor roll list for overall district grades as determined by the Florida school grading system.  Seven of the fourteen PAEC member districts scored an overall district grade of either A or B.  Only 19 Florida school districts out of 67 attained a grade of A.  Three of the fourteen PAEC member districts earned an A.  This number represents 16% of the total districts, statewide, that earned an A.  There were a total of 24 districts that earned a grade of B.  Four PAEC member districts out of those 24 districts in the state, earned a grade of B.  This represents 17% of the total districts, statewide, that earned a B.  The following PAEC districts made the A honor roll:

The following PAEC districts made the B honor roll:

These districts are commended for this great accomplishment.  The hard work of the teachers and district level staff, along with the students paid off.  District grades are based on the number of points earned and include the percentage of total students in the district that meet high standards in reading, math, writing and science on the FCAT.  Another factor in the calculation of points earned is the percentage of students making learning gains in reading and math on the FCAT.  The percentage of students that are in the lowest quartile that make learning gains in reading and math on the FCAT is also a factor in the calculation of the district grading process.  Congratulations to these high achieving districts!
