The document analyzes the fairness of school grades in Florida, which are based on standardized test scores from the Florida Comprehensive Assessment Test (FCAT). It investigates whether a school's grade is influenced more by its intrinsic qualities or by the characteristics of its students. The study uses data from 15,100 elementary students and examines various factors affecting academic achievement, including parental education, income, race, and school resources. The findings suggest that while both student and school characteristics impact test scores, A-rated schools tend to perform better due to their ability to effectively utilize educational inputs. The authors argue for a reevaluation of the grading system to focus on individual student progress rather than aggregate scores, advocating for equitable resource distribution among schools serving disadvantaged populations.
