Superintendent McGraw reported to the Jefferson City school board that the district saw a substantial increase in Advanced Placement performance this year. "We had over 600 students pass an advanced placement exam," he said, and noted the district pass rate rose to 84% from 81% the prior year. McGraw highlighted the growth compared with 2019 figures and credited teachers, students and parents for the improvement.
McGraw provided school-level counts, saying Capital City High School had 84 AP Scholars and Jefferson City High School had 67, for a district total of 151 AP Scholars in 2026. He described the rising enrollment in pre-AP and AP courses for the coming year and said the results should translate to college savings for students who earn college credit through AP exams.
