Rice Lake reports strong AP pass rate, largest-ever exam participation
Summary
District presenters said Rice Lake’s 2025 AP pass rate was 82%, above the cited state (71.2%) and national (73%) averages; 60 students attempted AP exams last year, the largest number in district history, and AP teacher Alexis Doctor said 15 of 19 students in her AP Language & Composition class scored 3 or higher.
District academic staff presented Advanced Placement (AP) exam results and broader academic metrics, telling the board the district achieved strong results last year and increased student participation.
The presenter said Rice Lake’s composite AP pass rate was 82% in 2024–25, above the state average the presenter cited at 71.2% and a national average of 73%. The presenter said 60 students attempted an AP exam in 2025 — the highest number in Rice Lake High School history — and that 113 students were enrolled in AP courses across the district. The presenter said these results reflect K–12 curriculum alignment and credit-bearing pathways that prepare students for rigorous work.
AP Language and Composition teacher Alexis Doctor told the board she had 19 students take the exam and 15 earned a score of 3 or higher: "I had 19 students take the exam, and of those 19, 15 passed the exam with a 3 or higher." The presenter noted that a score of 3 or above may earn college credit depending on the receiving institution, and cited test fees around $90 per exam and district reimbursement policies for students in hardship.
Board members asked about reporting detail (subject score reports are available through the College Board) and the timing of when students must register for AP exams (now in the fall while tests occur in spring); district staff explained accommodations such as alternative test dates when students conflict with other activities and school-run study sessions to prepare students.
No formal board action was required; the board thanked staff and teachers for the results.
