SY18 District and School Grades Collier County Public Schools - An “A” District

The Department of Education has released school grades for all levels and overall district grades.

In 2018:

 CCPS tied for the third highest percentage points earned up from 33rd in 2011 • Two districts tied for first earning 69 percentage points • Two districts tied for second earning 67 percentage points; and • CCPS and one other district tied for third earning 66 percentage points  Only 30% of the districts in Florida earned a district grade of an “A”  CCPS has 27 of 54 (50%) schools earning an A . 22 schools maintained an A, 5 improved to an A  10 other schools improved their grade including two high schools, two middle schools, and six elementary schools  First time in CCPS history to have all A, B, and C schools since the inception of school grading in 1999, with no D or F schools

The state accountability system focuses on the following school and district performance outcomes: student achievement, learning gains, graduation, acceleration success, and maintaining a focus on students who need the most support.

Incredible growth in CCPS can be attributed to the hard work and commitment of students, parents, teachers, administrators, District staff, and strong community support. A focus on progress monitoring and ongoing adjustments to instruction are integral to overall student achievement. Village Oaks Elementary’s school grade improved to a C and the school is no longer designated as a “Turnaround School” by the state of Florida, a significant accomplishment among the many school gains.

“The District has earned an ‘A’ based on the state accountability system and shown growth in a challenging year. We are proud of the achievements of individual students, families, teachers, school administrators and the collective District performance. Earning an ‘A’ is a significant accomplishment for our schools and the community.”
