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. 13 Department of Accountability: “Anyone can measure the rain; we build arks.”
