In a nearly two-hour pitch session Tuesday night, Middletown made its case to educate Little Compton’s high school students again beginning in 2012, with school officials enthusiastically presenting slide after slide of glimpses into scholastic life at Middletown High School that covered everything from AP classes to virtual high school classes, from discipline statistics to NECAP scores, from the championship football team to the award-winning robotics teams, and more.

Middletown School officials also offered the Little Compton School Committee a non-voting seat on the Middletown School Committee to help ensure Little Compton has a greater voice in Middletown.

The high school has continued to push students academically in addition to providing additional help – in the form of a “CAPT Academy” and a Learning Center – to students who have struggled on the state’s standardized tests, Wygonik said.

Students took more Advanced Placement tests than ever in the 2009-10 school year, Wygonik said. In all, 101 students took 179 exams in 16 subjects, including six subjects not offered at the school that students took classes online, through the Virtual High School program.

Of the 179 exams, students scored between a 3 and a 5, the top score, in 141 exams.
