In 2012, ECTAC launched the Exceeding Expectations (E2 ) Project . From a database of all schools in the State, an ECTAC data analysis team identifies Title I schools that are exceeding expectations by showing significant progress
in improving student achievement. Schools with 50% to 100% of students who qualify for free or reduced lunch are first selected using criteria based on School Grade data obtained from the FDOE database. These schools are then
visited by a team of ECTAC members for interviews and classroom observations. After careful review of a combination of criteria consisting of FCAT and Florida State Assessment scores and observations and interviews that occurred during our site visits, schools are identified as either a Finalist, or Award School.
