Huge shout out to the Jeff High School AP Calculus AB students! The JHS scholars had an 80% pass rate on the AP Exam compared to the 58% global pass rate! #Bronchos #APCalculus @jeff_principal

[Trevor Packer @AP_Trevor]

The 2023 AP Calculus AB scores: 5: 22%; 4: 16%; 3: 20%; 2: 22%; 1: 20%. This is a hefty increase over last year, rivaling pre-pandemic performance; exciting to see this strong recovery, given the pandemic’s impact on math sequences/proficiency.
