If your student has an Individual Education Plan (IEP), a Section 504 Plan, or is an English Language Learner (ELL) or a recently exited ELL, they will receive a testing pass from their English teacher. This pass ensures that appropriate accommodations are provided during assessments, supporting each student’s unique learning needs and helping them demonstrate their knowledge in the most equitable environment possible.

A make-up day will be announced at the conclusion of the testing dates listed above.

Florida Statewide Assessment Program

Florida’s statewide, standardized assessments in English Language Arts (ELA) Reading, Writing, and Mathematics are aligned with the Benchmarks for Excellent Student Thinking (B.E.S.T.) Standards. The Florida Assessment of Student Thinking (FAST), which includes VPK through grade 10 ELA Reading and VPK through grade 8 Mathematics assessments, is administered as a progress monitoring assessment three times per year. B.E.S.T. assessments that are not part of the FAST progress monitoring program include grades 4–10 Writing and end-of-course (EOC) assessments in Algebra 1 and Geometry. Information about these assessments can be found on the following pages:

Additionally, A passing score (level 3 or higher) is required for 10th-grade students in order to satisfy their ELA graduation assessment requirement.  The FAST ELA Reading PM3 is administered in one 120-minute session, and students may work up to the end of the school day.

The testing windows below denote the amount of time provided for districts and schools to select test administration days; they do not represent the amount of time students spend taking the assessments. The windows are established to provide maximum flexibility to efficiently deliver these important measurements of student progress and performance and maximize student learning and instructional time.
