At Oak Park High School, they stopped asking which students should take AP and started asking which students could take AP. They found the answer was simple, everybody! Oak Park has developed a program where every junior engages in Advanced Placement Government and they are experiencing a great deal of success which has led to additional pilots in other AP courses. Not only have they seen a dramatic increase in their number of qualifying scores, but they are also seeing an improvement in assessment results outside of the class based on the exposure to more challenging coursework. Join them for an interactive presentation where they will share what they have found to be the best strategies for meeting all learners where they are at and be ready for them to ask you to stretch your thinking and adopt an all-in growth mindset. They will model what works, talk about struggles along their journey, and help you develop a system where every student can access AP!
