Hi everyone! I am proud to say I am RUNNING the NYC Marathon this November for Project Purple- pancreatic cancer research. Check out my page to read my story and donate. Any donations are greatly appreciated and help find a cure for pancreatic cancer.

It’s that time of year when AP Readers begin finishing the scoring of AP essays, portfolios, and free-response questions, so as the data roll in, I’ll post that info here. A few reminders follow.
I won’t know in advance the day when each subject will reach a critical mass of psychometrically confirmed scores, so I can’t provide a schedule of when I’ll post each subject. Because these score distributions include all students worldwide, individual classrooms will often have score distributions that are either higher or lower than this aggregation.
AP Exams aren’t scored on a curve. Rather, as many students as earn the points necessary for college credit receive a score of 3 or higher. Each AP Exam version (e.g. west coast vs east coast; digital vs paper) is separately equated so that regardless of which version you take, you receive a comparable score. More details on exam versions and equating: https://t.co/hHxkzezmOm
Student performance on equated questions from year to year enables psychometricians to determine whether this year’s students, overall, demonstrated stronger, weaker, or similar content/skill mastery in relation to prior years’ students.
These scores represent a critical mass of scored exams, but faculty will continue to score throughout June. So we don’t upload scores for educators and students to view until July when all subjects are complete. If you’re an AP student, here’s information about how to make sure you’re able to view your AP scores starting July 7. https://t.co/YiSc8q9IcY
Remember that you have until June 20 to indicate which college should receive your free score send. https://t.co/FXyxVHESJ0
If you’re an AP educator, here’s information about how to view your students’ AP scores starting July 7: https://t.co/uvid823lkh
After the remaining exams in each subject are scored between now and the end of June, the score distributions may slightly shift. We seek to serve a wide array of student interests by offering AP courses in 40 subjects. Students should resist pressure to take large numbers of AP classes.
Our research finds that taking just 1-2 APs per year optimizes a student’s readiness for college. Take more only if the subject matter truly interests. https://t.co/MMddTR4L9S
While we celebrate students who earn scores that qualify them to place out of a college course, AP scores, high or low, are not a verdict on academic potential, intellectual curiosity, or motivation to continue to learn and grow.
Some of the AP gov crew post exam this morning. They felt confident it went well and it was “easier than the tests in class”. Hopefully the snack/ goodie bags helped! So proud of them. Best of luck to any student taking AP exams over the next 2 weeks!!
Reese and Olivia, two participants in the Student Civic Liaison Program, invited Secretary Amore to speak to their classmates in a Voter Education Assembly today as part of their civics action project! (1/2)
Great work today by 2 senior Broncos, Olivia Fullam and Reese Morin, informing juniors and seniors about voter registration, importance of voting and working elections as poll workers. Special shoutout to all elected officials who attended and @RISecState for speaking! #gobroncos
Thursday is the Voter Registration Drive at BHS! Students will learn election dates, how to vote, register to vote if eligible, & learn why it is important to be an informed voter. Coordinated by Broncos Olivia Fullam & Reese Morin as part of the the RI Civic Liaisons Program.
Best of luck to our athletes competing today in the RIIL STATE CHAMPIONSHIP! Highlights include Garrett Dailey, ranked 6 in the 1500, Jill Russell, ranked 17 in the 1500, Kenzie Cleary, ranked 6 in the javelin, and the boys 4x800 relay team- Ryan, Devin, Ben and Garrett ranked 12
Tommy McCormick's mother passed away last month and he planned on not playing this season. He decided the best way to honor her memory was to play in the #US Open local qualifier. He posted a 3-under 69 to advance to the sectionals. He discusses how his mom helped him today.

Thank you Hon. Judge Cruise, Attorney Henniger, and Deputy Sheriff Colbert for taking time out of their busy day to come and speak with students in the Law and Public Safety Pathway. @BSDBroncos@BHSSocialStud@burrillville
The Georgetown directory indicates Kenneth White may be joining the Hoyas. He's been at Providence since 2003 and is still listed on Providence's website as well.
Really hope more athletes - especially underclassmen - go out for a sport like volleyball or tennis.
And if you’re a football player with no spring sport and you’re not competing in track, you’re selling yourself short.
A big thank you to Kara Picozzi of the RI Supreme Court for this wonderful virtual meeting with the Hon. Justice Gilbert V. Indeglia, a retired RI Supreme Court Justice. The students enjoyed learning from him and asking questions they had about law and society. @BHSBroncos
We were college kids playing against the top professional athletes in the world. My teammates, coaches & I maximized our shared & individual experiences & talents to win the gold. We were motivated & disciplined. We embraced every challenge we faced. Competence over credentials.
When they are dressed up you have to force them to take pictures! BHS XC clean up nicely! One more celebration of this awesome team tonight at the Fall Sports Awards. Can’t wait to work with this crew again. Is it fall 2023 yet? @BHSbroncosxc
