The Florida's Comprehensive Assessment Test (FCAT) are based on performances including graduation rate, participation and performance in accelerated programs, and college readiness skills.
In all, the district has two A schools, four B schools and one M school, based on the 2010-11 state assessment.
A’s went to Allen Nease and Ponte Vedra high schools. B schools are Bartram Trail, Creekside, Pedro Menendez and St. Augustine high schools.
M stands for “maintaining” and is applied to St. Johns Technical High School, which for 2009-10 received an F.District officials have disagreed with that F score, arguing the school is designed as an alternative school and uses a different rating system than traditional high schools. Officials said the M rating reflected improvements in reading and math gains for 2010-11.
The school district also ranked No. 1 in Florida when school grades for elementary and middle schools were released during the summer of 2011.
