FCAT (Florida Comprehensive Assessment Test)

As taken from the FLDOE website, "The Florida Comprehensive Assessment Test (FCAT) is a component of Florida's effort to improve the teaching and learning of higher educational standards. The primary purpose of the FCAT is to assess student achievement of the high-order thinking skills represented in the Sunshine State Standards (SSS) for Reading, Writing, Mathematics, and Science. The SSS portion of the FCAT is a criterion-referenced test. The secondary purpose is to compare the performance of Florida students to the performance of students across the nation. This comparison is possible through the use of a norm-referenced test (NRT) for Reading and Mathematics. The current NRT is the Stanford Achievement Test 10© (SAT10) published by Harcourt Assessment, Incorporated."
