    Is there any way you can provide a link to wherever you found this information? I have searched all over for district 4’s FCAT scores and can’t seem to find them. Live out in the country, but work in the city!

    I don’t understand how end of course scores can be so high when reading scores are so low.

    >> They are available on the State DOE website. I included only District 5 for consistency. They are kids that live in North Escambia that attend pretty much every other high school in the district.

    William,

    Were West Florida High School’s scores not available? Many students live in North Escambia, including my daughter who attends there.
