Welcome to the 2017 version of the FSA Levels Comparison Graphs. These graphs, as in the past, display the results by levels enabling the user to compare a selected school against the District and against any other school of the same type in the District. This year we added the ability to compare this years data with data from the prior year which can be chosen by selecting "Two Year" from the radio buttons at the center top of the page.

You will also find in the menu above links to web applications that compare a school's achievement in the individual Reporting Categories with the District’s mean score for each category for Math and ELA. For more information about the FSA Reporting Categories please visit: Understanding Florida Standards Assessment Reports-Page 17-FSA Reporting Categories.

Each stacked bar graph application once selected from the menu above will show the scores for English Language Arts, Mathematics and the EOC tests by level, defaulting to the overall district levels for all grades. To view information for an individual school, click on the drop-down list at the top left. A graph for the chosen school will appear side-by-side with graph representing the District scores for the same grades as the selected school. The radio buttons that appear at the top center of the form allow the user to select from 3 types of comparison - the default comparison is the District. The second button allows for a two year comparison, and the third button allows comparison with other schools of the same type. In addition, the radio buttons at the bottom of the graphs allow the user to filter by individual demographic groups. The default is All Students, but the graphs can be filtered to include only Black, White, Hispanic, Exceptional Student Education (ESE), English Language Learners (ELL), or Free-or-Reduced Lunch (FRL) students.

Using these graphs, select your school to help answer the following:

• Are there any patterns in the graphs I can use to understand who is succeeding and who is not in the different sub-groups of students at my school?
• How has my school fared within the various subgroups year-to-year?
• How is my school doing in comparison to other district schools dealing with the same or similar challenges as we are?
• Are there special areas in my schools results that deserve extra attention? Are specific groups of our students not getting what they need to excel?
