All Marion County high schools earn "A" or "B" grades

Marion County's seven public high schools scored enough points on the FCAT to earn A-grades, but 4 of those were bumped to B-grades because their bottom quartile did not significantly improve. Public Schools Spokesman Kevin Christian says regardless, the student's hardwork shows in these results.

Christian adds the county is very proud of the hardworking students and attributes the success to the collaboration between teachers and students.
