A-Celebration: Every North Escambia Area Middle, Elementary Gets An “A” School Grade
June 30, 2011
There was lot of celebrating at every North Escambia area elementary and middle school — all of them received A’s in the Florida Department of Education school accountability grades released Thursday morning.
All five North Escambia area elementary schools — Bratt, Byrneville, Molino Park, Jim Allen and Jay– returned to A status for 2011.
Bratt Elementary returned to A-status in 2011, up from a B last year. Byrneville improved from a C, Jim Allen and Molino Park improved from a B, and Jay improved from a C.
The news was equally good for Ernest Ward and Ransom, the two middle schools in North Escambia.
Both Ernest Ward and Ransom were A schools for 2011 — the sixth straight year at an A-ranking for both schools.
The Escambia County School District is now an A-rated district, up from a C last year. And the Santa Rosa County School District remained A-rated for the eighth consecutive year.
High school grades will not be released until later this year because graduation rates and other factors are being considered this year and that data is not yet available.
Each school is given a grade based primarily upon student achievement data from the FCAT. The grades are designed to communicate to the public how well a school is performing relative to state standards.
School grades are calculated based on annual learning gains of each student toward achievement of Sunshine State Standards, the progress of the lowest quartile of students, and the meeting of proficiency standards.
