HSPA

I don’t think HSAP is as hard as people say it is. I think that if we put some effort into it, we’ll pass it. We just need to study and focus, like any other test. I also think that the reason some kids don’t pass is because they feel like it’s no big deal. They don’t have enough incentive. Not having to retake it in the fall isn’t enough anymore. So maybe the school should offer new incentives, like a scholarship for the student with the highest score or scholarships for students who get advanced proficient scores. Maybe, give prizes to students who pass or get good scores. They could vote, by holding a poll to see what prizes students would like to receive as encouragement to pass their HSAP. They could also request letters from students, saying what they would like the prizes to be. I think that these things will encourage student to pass, and therefore improve our scores as a school.
