Tampa Bay Area School Grades Released

Tampa Bay, FL — The wait is over for Tampa Bay area educators, parents and students. The Florida Department of Education released its 2016 school grades listings with a number of schools in the region earning high marks and a few failing to meet standards.

The 2016 school grades are based on test results related to the Florida Standards Assessments, the state’s answer to Common Core. Grades issued in 2015 served as a baseline.
