Since the original rule adoption, the FCAT Norm Referenced Test (NRT) has been eliminated from the FCAT assessment program. The effect of this rule revision will be that students who score at Level 1 on the grade three FCAT Reading may be promoted to grade four if an acceptable level of performance is demonstrated on the alternative assessment (SAT-9 or SAT-10) or using a student portfolio.
