WHS Testing ...because there is more to high school than the FCAT. |
FCAT The FCAT is the standard State of Florida test for reading. All 9th and 10th graders are required to take FCAT. Grade 10 students who do not receive a passing score (245*) take an FCAT "retake" offered two times a year until they receive a passing score or graduate. Students must pass FCAT Reading with a score of 245 (2013 Retake passing score = 241), or receive a minimum score on the SAT (440) or ACT (18) to receive a standard diploma.
