What is the FCAT?
The Florida Comprehensive Assessment Test is used to assess student achievement of the high-order cognitive skills represented in the Sunshine State Standards (SSS) in Reading, Writing, Mathematics, and Science (see: http://www.firn.edu/doe/sas/fcat.htm). District results are available at the http://www.firn.edu/doe/sas/fcat/fcpress.htm link. Results are used to determine school grades (see the http://www.firn.edu/doe/schoolgrades/ link for access to individual school data).
