MONTGOMERY CATHOLIC EDUCATOR SELECTED TO PARTICIPATE IN ADVANCED PLACEMENT PROGRAM READING NEW YORK 1

Montgomery Catholic High School teacher – Mindy Walski was selected to participate in the College Board’s Annual AP Reading in Computer Science Principles. Each Junio, AP teachers and college faculty members from around the world gather in the United States to evaluate and score the free-response sections of the AP Exams. AP Readers are high school and college educators who represent many of the world’s leading academic institutions. The AP Reading is a unique forum in which an academic dialogue between educators is both fostered and encouraged. “The Reading draws upon the talents of some of the finest teachers and professors that the world has to offer,” said Trevor Packer, Senior Vice President, AP and Instruction at the College Board. “It fosters professionalism, allows for the exchange of ideas, and strengthens the commitment to students and to teaching. We are very grateful for the contributions of talented educators like Mindy Walski.” 

El Programa de Colocación Avanzada® (AP®) permite a los estudiantes dispuestos y académicamente preparados cursar estudios de nivel universitario - con la oportunidad de obtener créditos universitarios, colocación avanzada o ambos - mientras todavía están en la escuela secundaria. A través de los cursos AP en 38 asignaturas, cada uno de los cuales culmina con un riguroso examen, los estudiantes aprenden a analizar problemas complejos, a construir argumentos sólidos y a ver muchos lados de un asunto - habilidades que los preparan para la universidad y más allá. Las investigaciones indican que los estudiantes que obtienen una puntuación de 3 o más en un examen AP suelen experimentar un mayor éxito académico en la universidad y tienen más probabilidades de obtener un título universitario que los estudiantes que no son AP.
