Florida Standards Assessments
The Florida Standards Assessments (FSA) measure student achievement of the Florida Standards, which specify the challenging content Florida students are expected to learn in the subject areas of English language arts and mathematics. The Florida Standards were designed with input from educators, district administrators, community leaders and members of the public to ensure students receive the foundation necessary to succeed in each subsequent grade and/or course. The FSA was administered for the first time in Spring 2015.
Achievement Levels
The Achievement Level definitions that apply to FSA English Language Arts and Mathematics assessments are provided below, and the cut scores that define the levels are provided on page 3. Achievement Levels are referred to as Performance Levels on FSA student reports.
Level 5
Mastery--highly likely to excel in the next grade/course
Level 4
Proficient--likely to excel in the next grade/course
Level 3 Level 2 Level 1
Satisfactory--may need additional support for the next grade/course
Below Satisfactory--likely to need substantial support for the next grade/course
Inadequate--highly likely to need substantial support for the next grade/course
The FSA Achievement Levels were developed with input from more than 300 educators from around the state. In addition, a diverse group of statewide education stakeholders convened separately and made recommendations regarding passing scores on the new assessments. The Department of Education posted each group's recommendations on its website and requested feedback from all members of the public. After receiving public comment, the Commissioner of Education recommended the Achievement Levels for each assessment, and they were approved by the State Board of Education in January 2016.
