  It is always our intent to process student records as efficiently and securely as possible. If you have technical questions concerning the processing of FASTER records, please contact us at FSTR@fldoe.org. Please include the details of your question or request in your email.
  
  High schools with questions regarding missing or rejected transcripts should first contact their district offices BEFORE contacting the Florida Department of Education. Districts receive an Edit Error Report each time they submit transcripts and can provide information regarding the processing of transcripts. In addition, transcripts which are processed by FASTER but fail Bright Futures edits are listed on the district's Incoming Aging Report.
