Change starts with action. Children need your voice now more than ever. Governor DeSantis, Commissioner of Education Corcoran and your state lawmakers are creating policies that will impact kids, educators and our public schools.
Use the simple tools below to be easily connected to your elected officials. Tell them that you expect them to support Florida’s children and public schools. Share this page with your friends and ask them to help, too. It’s a quick and easy way to have a big impact.
The Class of 2022 needs your help today! Florida plans to proceed with state testing and the Florida Standards Assessment this year. This includes a new law that requires students in the Class of 2022 to achieve a higher score on the SAT in lieu of passing the 10th grade FSA. This class was not able to take the FSA in 10th grade due to the pandemic. In addition, many were not able to take it in 2021 as they were participating in distance learning. The Class of 2022 has had the least number of chances to take/pass the FSA. Due to restrictions caused by COVID-19, there were far fewer opportunities to take the ACT or SAT, as well.
The Class of 2022 is the ONLY class that has both a higher concordant score requirement AND is required to pass the 10th grade FSA in order to graduate.
Many students are at risk of not graduating. Take action today!
