[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s AP for all at JR and the AP courses are dumb down and not comprehensive or that rigorous. The classes are very large which also negatively impacts the class. About 50% of the kids taking the AP test basically fail it with getting a 1 or 2.[/quote] There is no AP for all at JR. The former principal tried to push this, but it was rejected by DCPS and never happened. JR has a 63% AP pass rate which is 2nd highest after Walls (which is expected). That is above the 55% national average. My kids also have not had any issues getting AP classes in 10th grade. Math and language AP track is straightforward, as well as non-core AP classes like Econ, Psych, Human Geography, etc.[/quote] It is AP for all. There are absolutely no academic standards needed for kids to take AP courses. Anyone can take AP[/quote] That's how 95%+ of all public schools work. [/quote]
