Concordant Test Scores
From FLDOE.org
According to section (s.) 1003.4282, Florida Statutes (F.S.), students must meet certain academic requirements to earn a standard high school diploma from a public school, including passing required courses, earning a minimum number of credits, earning a minimum grade point average, and passing certain required statewide assessments. Students who meet these requirements but do not pass the required assessments will receive a certificate of completion, which is not equivalent to a standard high school diploma. Passing scores for the statewide assessments are determined by the State Board of Education (SBE) and defined in Rule 6A-1.09422, Florida Administrative Code (F.A.C.).
Required Test | Passing Level (Level 1-5) | Scale Score | Scale Score Range |
