ELA Math

STATE NOTE. Results reflect performance on Florida's grade 3-8 FAST assessments in ELA and mathematics. Students are counted by the assessment taken, not by enrolled grade; off-grade test-takers are included. In 2026, off-grade testing is negligible in ELA (<0.1%), but in mathematics, ~8% of test-takers are accelerated students enrolled below the tested grade, concentrated in the grade-8 test; the grade-level math population also excludes students who took End-of-Course exams (e.g., Algebra 1). Data accessed 6/26/26.
ACHIEVEMENT LEVELS. State Education Agencies (SEAs) use state-specific labels for each achievement level (e.g., below basic, basic, proficient, advanced); SEAs also differ in the number of levels used on the state assessment. Across states, the EDC uses numbered labels for consistency (as shown in this figure).
DATE. This figure was published 7/1/26 by the Education Data Center (EDC).
