AP for ALL

Expanding Access to Advanced Placement Courses in New York City

The AP for All initiative, part of New York City's Equity and Excellence agenda, brings new AP courses to schools that offer few or no AP courses. These schools will get rigorous training for new and continuing AP teachers. The city will also help school leaders identify students who are ready for AP course work and prepare those students to address equity gaps.

New AP courses and preparatory courses started in fall 2016, with 75% percent of students offered at least five AP classes by fall 2018. By fall 2021, students at all high schools will have access to a full slate of at least five AP classes.

NYC TCP has partnered with AP for All to qualify, staff, and support teacher leaders with a focus on AP equity and access.
