Be prepared. Be organized. Be open to learning.
My students had a nearly 90% pass rate on the AP exams for 2020. I am particularly proud of these students for persevering through adversity of COVID-19. This was a challenging year for the AP exams with new formats, shortened intense exams, and the stress of the pandemic.
