School Grades. Under the highly successful instructional model of Florida Virtual Academy which operated as a pilot program under the Florida Department of Education from 2003 to 2008, K12 Florida LLC ("K12") was hired by the Florida Department of Education to use its instructiona I, management, and operational models as well as its curriculum and systems to design and launch the program. In 2005, the first year K12 earned a school grade as Florida Virtual Academy, the school celebrated a 'B" with 400 points-just 10 points from earning an "A." From school year 2006-2007 (with the addition of the Science Proficiency and Math Lowest 25% Learning Gains components) to school year 2008-2009, the Florida Virtual Academy earned an "A". In 2009- 2010, the first year of the District Virtual Instruction Programs powered by K12, we celebrated an "A", with 89% of the students tested demonstrating high standards in reading. In the 2010-2011 school year, K12 earned a "B", which was appealed due to missing scores. In 2011-2012, K12 earned a "C" which K12 appealed based on questions of accuracy of the data used to determine the grade. XXXXX acknowledged the issues raised about the data in their vendor grade appeal response. In the 2012-2013 school year, XXXXX brought about many changes to the State's grading system including a writing proficiency increase from 3.0 to 3.5 and increased student performance expectations for FCAT 2.0 Reading and Mathematics. Like most schools in Florida, K12's school grade dropped to a "D" which was subsequently corrected in 2013-2014 in which K12 earned a "C". In 2014-2015, Senate Bill 1642 was passed, refocusing the school grading formula on student success measures which delivered multiple changes in the FL Accountability System. The state also released the new testing platform. Although these changes yielded a no fault year, K12 earned a school grade of "C". In 2015-2016, the school grade for K12 increased to a 'B".
