[quote=Anonymous]This has ramifications beyond money. If the county doesn't pay and it's left up to parents, some parents won't pay - especially if they believe their child won't pass with a 3 on the AP exam and have a chance to receive college credit. Some will be reluctant due to financial hardship. Either way testing participation will go down. AP teachers will end up encouraging select students to take the exam - those students they feel will receive a qualifying score. Teachers/schools do not look as good if they teach AP and students don't get a least a 3 on the exam. By paying for the AP tests, FCPS is almost assuring participation in the exam. Lots of sides to this.[/quote]
