[quote=Anonymous]High School teacher and High School parent here. 1. I hate that so many teachers feel they have to teach to a test. That's not how real learning works. 2. The AP test scores do not get kids into college. They give kids credit (and only at some schools). In fact, more and more schools don't want kids to skip the general courses because an AP class simply isn't the same as a 100 level college course 3. Teach your classes in a way that sparks excitement, interest, joy, and love of learning. Make sure the kids are learning more than just what's on the test. Depth is always better than breadth. 4. No way should 30% of your kids be earning a D or F. Nor should they all be getting an A. Curious how long you've been teaching.[/quote]
