The Santa Rosa County School District would like to congratulate all our students, teachers, school staff, administrators, and parents on another outstanding testing year. Each year presents unique challenges and regardless of those challenges, the Santa Rosa School District team rises to the occasion.
This year’s results reestablish Santa Rosa County as a top performer as compared to the other districts in the state.

In Mathematics, our 8th graders ranked #1 in the state; in other grades we improved or maintained our rank in 3rd, 4th, 5th, and 8th grade. On the Algebra 1 End of Course exam (EOC), we maintained our proficiency level and on the Geometry EOC we improved our proficiency level by 2 %.
