Florida Statewide Assessment Program: Grades K-12

The Assessment Department is responsible for the administration of Florida's K-12 statewide student assessment programs as well as assisting with the administration and reporting of several other K-12 student assessment programs. The primary goal of the assessments is to provide information about student learning in Florida, as required by Florida law (see Section 1008.22, Florida Statutes).

The Statewide Assessment Program Information Guide (PDF) describes the process involved in developing, administering, and scoring the Florida Standards Assessments (FSA) and NGSSS assessments. We encourage parents/guardians, educators, and interested citizens to consult this guide to gain a thorough understanding of the statewide assessment program.
