Student Academic Performance Is Rising!
PCPS earned a “B” district grade for the 2025-26 school year, according to data released by the Florida Department of Education.
PCPS students saw achievement gains in Math, Science & English Language Arts, and more students took advantage of college and career acceleration programs.
A total of 14 traditional PCPS schools improved their own grades last year. For three consecutive years, there were no traditional PCPS schools earning an F grade.
“We’re very pleased with this year’s results, but we’re not yet satisfied. We’ll use this momentum to keep improving,” said Superintendent Fred Heid. “So many people have played a role in this great achievement: students, teachers, staff, parents, guardians, and volunteers. I’m incredibly grateful for their commitment, and so very proud to be part of Polk County Public Schools.”
