"High-stakes achievement tests are increasingly being used nationwide in order to make decisions about students\u0027 educational futures. For example, in Florida, performance on the Florida Comprehensive Assessment Test (FCAT) is used to determine academic proficiency in grades three through ten and also help govern graduation requirements for high school seniors. However, questions have been raised as to the validity and fairness of the FCAT in relation to the heterogeneous groups it targets. The purpose of this study is to examine the relationship between low performing schools in the state of Florida and their socioeconomic trends. Archival data from the 2011-2012 school year was obtained from Florida\u0027s Department of Education public records regarding FCAT 2,0 grade points and Title 1 status for 226 schools. It was hypothesized that students in Title 1 schools would score significantly lower on the FCAT than students in non-Title 1 schools. This hypothesis was evaluated using a Welsh Analysis of Variance (Welsh-ANOVA). It was also hypothesized that schools which have the double risk actors of being both predominantly low SES and predominantly minority status will score lower than those with just low SES. A Welsh-ANOVA was also used to evaluate this hypothesis. Findings of the present study supported both hypotheses. Title 1 funded schools obtained significantly less FCAT points than non-Title 1 funded schools. Additionally, Title 1 funded institutions with heightened minority populations scored significantly lower than the Title 1 funded institutions with heightened levels of majority populations."
