How we calculate the "Score" for each bill we're tracking:
Bill Score =
total votes matching what voters want
total votes cast by the Representative on bills we are tracking
Where we get our data: open.pluralpolicy.com, a community project that pulls legislative data from the Federal and State House and Senate websites.
Official data: We track and report the votes reported by the legislature. Displayed votes are the most recent data available from the House and Senate websites through Open States.
Changed votes: Legislators are entitled to change their votes after bills pass or fail. Those changes may or may not be published by the state.
No votes: A gray circle indicates that the legislator did not vote on the latest motion for that bill. They may have been absent or otherwise unable to vote.

This bill establishes the Florida Seal of Fine Arts Program within the Department of Education to acknowledge high school graduates who achieve exemplary results in fine arts courses. With the aim to encourage student proficiency in the visual and performing arts, the Seal of Fine Arts is awarded to students who meet certain criteria beginning with the 2024-2025 school year. Eligible students must have a standard high school diploma, complete three year-long fine arts courses with grades of "A" or higher, and accomplish two additional benchmarks, such as completing advanced coursework, participating in a juried event, volunteering for arts-related services, or being recognized for an original work of art.
