A COMPARISON OF THE AMERICAN DIPLOMA PROJECT (ADP) ENGLISH BENCHMARKS AND THE

FLORIDA SUNSHINE STATE STANDARDS FOR READING/LANGUAGE ARTS

Ratings indicates:3 = Excellent alignment between the two documents2= Good alignment, but important elements of an ADP Benchmark are not addressed1 = Weak match. The two statements may be related in only a very general manner0 = No match for the ADP Benchmark was foundNote that when alignment is found in Grades 9-12, earlier grade statements that also align are not included in this chart.Kindergarten through Grade 8 statements are included only when the match at 9-12 is incomplete.

Each Florida benchmark has a unique identification number, for example LA.910.3.4.1, which can be interpreted as follows:LA = Subject910 = Grade3 = Strand4 = Standard1 = Benchmark

When only a standard in a grade level below high school matches an ADP Benchmark, a rating of “2” is assigned. Expectations fromlower grades are noted in blue font to distinguish them from the high school expectations.

Green-shaded cells in this column denote an absence of Florida standards that align with an ADP Benchmark.
