The 2023 AP German scores (total group): 5: 19%; 4: 21%; 3: 26%; 2: 20%; 1: 14%.

The 2023 AP Spanish Language scores (total group): 5: 24%; 4: 30%; 3: 30%; 2: 14%; 1:3%. Congrats to AP Spanish teachers, who continue to build back toward pre-pandemic levels of student proficiency – this is a significant increase in scores over last year.

The 2023 AP French scores (total group): 5: 12%; 4: 25%; 3: 37%; 2: 20%; 1: 6%. This is a significant increase in 3s/4s/5s over last year, as teachers and students continue to press forward after pandemic interruptions of language sequences and progressions.
