Mr Williamsburg, Revolutionary ideas on real estate!Hampton Roads Virginia

The largest number ever of Williamsburg‐James City County Public School students recorded the highest number of A.P. exams ever taken by
W‐JCC students in 2008‐09, also delivering the best‐ever results.
You can click here to view the Advanced Placement (AP) results for school years 2005‐06 through 2008‐09.

What isn’t being touted by the county is the reduced pass rate of those taking the AP tests. If you look at 2005-2006 results you will see a much higher pass rate with far fewer takers. A study of 78,000 Texas students found college graduation rates much higher for those who, while in high school, took Advanced Placement exams — but failed them — than those who took no AP exams at all. If that’s the case then we are improving.  You can read about that study here
