State report card
Florida grades every public school A to F. The Florida Department of Education says school grades “provide an easily understandable way to measure the performance of a school,” in its 2026 school grades overview. Because SAS students are juniors and seniors, its grade counts only two components: the graduation rate and college and career acceleration.
| School year | Grade |
|---|---|
| 2025-26 | A (99% of possible points) |
| 2024-25 | A |
| 2023-24 | A |
- Four-year graduation rate (2024-25): 98%
- College and career acceleration (2024-25): 100% of graduates
