Flagler Schools has improved in every subject area in the 2025-26 school year, according to test results released Friday, June 26, by the Florida Department of Education. And when school grades are released after the July 4 holiday, Flagler expects to be an A-rated school district for the first time since 2019.
Superintendent LaShakia Moore told the Observer earlier in the week that according to district calculations, Flagler will surpass the threshold to receive an A grade.
We don’t assign grades, so we await for the state to release them, but based on our calculations we needed 25 points to be rated an A school district and we are projecting [that we’ll get] 53 points.

“We don’t assign grades, so we await for the state to release them, but based on our calculations we needed 25 points to be rated an A school district and we are projecting [that we’ll get] 53 points,” Moore said.
The district has achieved a pass rate equal or higher than the state average in every subject area except one, according to the test results released by FLDOE, Flagler Schools announced in a press release.
“We’ve improved in every core area, in math, science, social studies and ELA,” Moore told the Observer.
While Flagler County has improved, so has the whole state. Gov. Ron DeSantis announced that for the first time ever, more than 60% of Florida students performed on or above grade level in both English language arts and math.
Here’s a rundown of Flagler County's results and how they compare to the state average:
“These results are a testament to the hard work and dedication that students and staff have continued to show year after year,” Moore said in the district press release. “A major contributing factor was our continuous improvement cycles which encompasses schoolwide improvement plans, streamlined assessment windows, instructional reviews, and data chats.”
