OK OK OK....
Can you break it down simply for me?
As of recent regulations, here's the breakdown for the Florida Civics Literacy Exam (FCLE) requirements for both high school and college students in Florida:
1. College Students:
- Requirement: All students initially entering a Florida College System or State University System institution in 2018-19 and thereafter are required to demonstrate competency in civic literacy. This can be achieved either by passing the Florida Civics Literacy Exam (FCLE) or by completing a civics course that meets state standards.
2. High School Students:
- Requirement: Legislation passed in 2021 requires high school students enrolled in a U.S. Government course to take the FCLE. However, passing the exam in high school is not mandated by the state, but it is highly encouraged as it prepares students for college requirements.
3. Passing FCLE in High School and its Impact in College:
- If you pass the FCLE in high school, currently, the State of Florida recognizes this pass to meet the civic literacy requirement for college admittance and graduation, meaning you would not need to retake the exam in college.
These policies can evolve, and it's advisable to check with your specific educational institution or the Florida Department of Education for the most current requirements and how they apply to your situation.
