While the Diocesan Guidelines are more stringent than the Sunshine State standards in most cases we work hard to ensure that we are meeting or exceeding both sets of standards. The Diocesan Guidelines are developed in cooperation with Catholic Schools nationally, so we also compare ourselves to other Catholic schools across the nation.
We do not administer the Florida Comprehensive Assessment Test (FCAT) but instead provide our students with the Iowa Test of Basic Skills in order to compare our students progress from year to year as well as compare our results to other Catholic schools nationwide - not just Florida. Our school continues to score in the top 20% of all schools nationally on these tests. Most grades score in the top 10% and these results continue to improve.
Our Core Subjects include: - Math, Language Arts, Science, Social Studies, and Religion. Our Specialist Subjects include: - Art, Music, Drama, Spanish, Physical Education and Library.
