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:
- 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;
- 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;
- 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.

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