Florida Statutes as well as Flagler Schools policy require that certain tests be administered to specific students each year. In general, all are mandated by statutes or administrative rules passed by the Florida Legislature or the Florida Board of Education. For more information, the comprehensive listings and descriptions found in the Uniform Assessment Calendar may be useful.

Testing Information

Per the Florida Department of Education (FDOE), no remote administrations are available for any statewide summative assessments. iFlagler students will be assigned to their home-zoned school or the iFlagler offices to take these  assessments.

Students taking computer-based assessments will need to use their school-issued devices for testing. The Testing Profile must be installed on all school-issued computers prior to testing. Students who are using their own devices or have an issue with their school-issued device, should complete the Testing Technology Needs form.

The Testing Policies page provides important information for families to review prior to student testing.

FAST Progress Monitoring

The Florida Assessment of Student Thinking (FAST) is a progress monitoring tool that will be administered three times per year to track student progress in learning the Benchmarks of Excellent Student Thinking (B.E.S.T.) Standards throughout the school year.

FAST assessments are computer-adaptive tests taken on a computer or tablet. The questions get easier or more difficult depending on how the student responds, and each student will see different questions from a common item bank. Each test attempt (PM1, PM2, and PM3) will present 35–40 items that will cover the entire test “blueprint,” meaning students will encounter items representative of the standards within the subject or grade level.

K–2nd Grade Students

The Star Early Literacy assessment typically takes less than 15 minutes to complete. The Star Reading assessment is usually completed in less than 20 minutes, and the Star Math assessment typically takes less than 30 minutes to complete.
