[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think this policy should have been more broad- so say that all juniors must take at least two AP classes. Then kids can choose classes in their strong subject areas or interests. A student is more likely to succeed in a challenging class if they have interest in the subject matter. That policy ensures all students are taking AP classes but gives some choice. And a bunch of kids might choose AP Physics or Bio over AP US History which is a TON of reading. This would meet the needs of more students. [/quote] I think this is the best argument. That to graduate a student must have taken 2 AP classes. The argument that any student can sign up for AP classes without permission is weak. How many kids are playing small? This encourages them to push higher. Also, to the PP who posted white demographics and proficiency. I know many white kids, mainly boys because that's who I know, who are struggling there. White ≠ proficient. [/quote]
