How big the schools are
School grades and report cards
Florida grades every public school A through F each summer, from test scores, learning gains and, for high schools, graduation and college readiness. Look up any school’s grade, test scores and graduation rate on the state’s school report cards or its school grades page. Each school’s improvement plan is on Florida CIMS.
