| FL | Signed into law 05/2006 | P-12 | School boards must annually approve improvement plans for all schools that address student achievement goals and strategies based on state and school district proficiency standards. The plans must include an accurate, data-based analysis of student achievement and other school performance data.
Beginning with plans approved for implementation in the 2007-2008 school year, each secondary school plan must include a redesign component based on the principles established in the High School Redesign Act. For each school in the district that earns a school grade of "C" or below, or is required to have a school improvement plan under No Child Left Behind, the school improvement plan shall, at a minimum, also include: 1. Professional development that supports enhanced and differentiated instructional strategies to improve teaching and learning.
2. Continuous use of disaggregated student achievement data to determine effectiveness of instructional strategies. 3. Ongoing informal and formal assessments to monitor individual student progress, including progress toward mastery of the Sunshine State Standards, and to redesign instruction if needed. 4. Alternative instructional delivery methods to support remediation, acceleration, and enrichment strategies.

| FL | Signed into law 05/2006 | P-12 | School in which low-performing students are enrolled must develop, in consultation with the student's parent, and must implement a progress monitoring plan. A progress monitoring plan is intended to provide the school district and the school flexibility in meeting the academic needs of the student and to reduce paperwork. A student who is not meeting the school district or state requirements for proficiency in reading and math must be covered by one of the following plans to target instruction and identify ways to improve his or her academic achievement:
1. A federally required student plan such as an individual education plan; 2. A schoolwide system of progress monitoring for all students; or
3. An individualized progress monitoring plan.
If the student has been identified as having a deficiency in reading, the K-12 comprehensive reading plan required by s.1011.62(8) must include instructional and support services to be provided to meet the desired levels of performance. District school boards may require low-performing students to attend remediation programs held before or after regular school hours or during the summer if transportation is provided.
