High school Advanced Placement (AP) teachers gathered Sept. 14 at the Dean Rusk Building for an informative workshop that instilled the value of using data to inform instruction and effective AP course planning to increase student achievement. Rebecca Chambers, of the Georgia Department of Education, served as the keynote speaker who provided a plethora of information for the high school AP staff. Chambers guided teachers through an analysis of their Instructional Planning Reports, which assisted them in targeting specific areas for increased curriculum focus.
