Just got the AP scores - I'm still falsely listed as the teacher, even though the principal replaced me two years ago with a teacher whom he contended would do better job (the real reason was he wanted the course as a lure).
They look - awful.
The
AP Language and Composition Scores (by teacher)
Me "better teacher"
Score %
% % %
5 26.2 26.5 19 15.7
4 38 32.4 36.2 24.25 26.2 26.5 19 15.7
3 31 32.4 32.8 38.6
2 4.8 8.8 12.1 7.1
1 0 0 0 4.3
Failure 4.8 8.8 12.1 21.4
The drop in the percentage of 5s (the highest score) from the last year I taught the course to the first year of the supposedly better teacher was 26.5 to 19 - a 28 percent decrease - and from that last year I taught to the score under the "better teacher" this past year the decline was 26.5 to 15.7 - a 41 percent decrease.
Overall, the percentage of passing students decreased, and the average test score dropped.
I feel bad for the students.
Pax et bonum
