Programs Data

Henrico’s Department of Assessment, Research and Evaluation calculated the advanced course enrollment indices, based on the number of students taking honors, A.P., I.B. or dual-enrollment high school courses in fall 2020. Below is a breakdown of advanced enrollment students by subgroups. When division-level demographics are compared with the equity indices line above, there is a clear indication that HCPS has work to do.

While numbers remained the same or improved between the baseline year (2018-19) and 2019-20, HCPS has room to improve among Black, Hispanic, English learners and students with disabilities when it comes to advanced course enrollment. This information must become be a powerful call to action and systemic change in order to close “excellence gaps” below the target line.
