Medway Makes College Board AP Honor Roll for 3rd Time!


For 2013, only 437 Districts in the United States were recognized, with Massachusetts having 33 Districts earning this distinction.

Medway is one of only 3 Districts in the State to earn this distinction 3-years in a row!

In order to be awarded the AP District Honor Roll, Districts must:
  1. Increase participation/access to AP by at least 4 percent in large districts, at least 6 percent in medium districts and at least 11 percent in small districts;
  2. Ensure that the percentage of African American, Hispanic/Latino, and American Indian/Alaska Native students taking AP Exams did not decrease by more than 5 percent for large and medium districts or by more than 10 percent for small districts;
  3. Improve performance levels when comparing the percentage of students in 2012 scoring a 3 or higher to those in 2010, unless the district has already attained a performance level in which more than 70 percent of the AP students are scoring a 3 or higher.
The full list from the College Board can be found here:
2011 Report can be found HERE.
2012 Report can be found HERE.
2013 Report can be found HERE.

Earning this distinction bolsters my belief that increased access to rigorous, high-quality education produces increased excellence.
