[quote=Anonymous]If I recall correctly, the theory behind honors for all was to give more students the confidence to enroll in AP classes in the later years of high school. And to overcome the inherent teacher bias which was causing teachers to encourage white students to take AP classes while not encouraging minority students. The AU study from about a year ago actually showed a slight decrease in the number of students of color enrolling in AP classes. So, now the conclusion is just force everyone to take AP classes. Doesn’t this step sort of mean that Honors for All has failed to achieve the stated goal? [/quote]
