Conclusion

 The greatest number of AP test takers took the

greatest number of AP tests in the history of TC Williams in 2009-2010.

 With these participation increases TC Williams also

recorded the highest percent of AP Qualifying scores seen in the last six years.

 The challenge remains increasing the participation of

subgroups with disproportionately low representation, and continuing to decrease AP performance gaps.
