St. Lucie School Performance
In a February 6 article in TC Palm about poverty as an indicator of academic performance, St. Lucie County had a poverty rate of 60.5, and ranked # 42 for FCAT achievement and poverty rate. Scripps Treasure Coast Newspapers analyzed FCAT scores and poverty rates and found unsurprisingly that poverty is a strong predictor of student achievement.
