Florida Seal of Fine Arts
In April 2024, the Florida State Legislature unanimously approved the The Florida Seal of Fine Arts Program as a state level seal honoring high school graduates who have met exemplary benchmarks in fine arts coursework by the award of a seal on a standard high school diploma. The purpose of the Florida Seal of Fine Arts Program is to encourage students to develop an exemplary level of proficiency in the performing or visual arts.
This is a state level honor, but applications, tracking progress towards requirements, coordination, communication, and distribution of Seals will happen at the district and school level.
Only teachers and school counselors will be able to upload documents to FOCUS and confirm their authenticity.
To view the language of the Florida Seal of Fine Arts, please review Rule 6A-1.09952 Requirements for the Florida Seal of Fine Arts or read the full text of the rule below. This Florida Seal of Fine Arts began on July 1, 2024.
