As we continue the journey to become “second to none” in services for our children, we are pleased to receive this recognition by the Washington Post. Probably the quickest way to increase our ranking in the “Challenge Index” is to require all students who take AP classes to take the AP tests. Testing is currently optional. But this is not the only measure of our success. For three consecutive years both Rappahannock County schools have been fully accredited. This year, both schools met the No Child Left Behind standards of Adequate Yearly Progress (AYP).
