We’ve been voting by mail for four years in King County and each has been one of signifi cant change. King County voters have done a great job adjusting to change and you may appreciate knowing that your elections department has as well. With over 1.17 million voters spread out over more than 2,000 voting districts, the challenge to implement change, while protecting the integrity of each vote has been, at times, a monumental endeavor. In our quest to make elections processes more effi cient and reduce costs, the world of technology has certainly provided a range of remarkable options. However, it’s been our impatient, questioning and innovative work force that has been the strong, beating heart of the most effective, forward-thinking changes. Thanks to them, we have achieved greater effi ciency, resolved problems and improved our ability to meet expectations of King County voters. We are working to provide outstanding voter experiences, employing means that offer more choices each year. Multi-channel delivery, empowerment, simplifi ed and streamlined options, and relevancy-- this is a vocabulary that is associated today with service. We have also benefi tted from the help of many strategic partnerships, including vendors, other public agencies, and organizations. We are working together to make sure more citizens are engaged in voting with better understanding of the voting process.

  • Advanced Placement (AP) OSPI Program Brief Program Description: This Program Allows Students to Take Rigorous College-Level Courses While Still in High School
    Advanced Placement (AP) OSPI Program Brief Program description: This program allows students to take rigorous college-level courses while still in high school. Students may earn college credit and/or advanced placement into upper-level college courses by taking AP exams. Many colleges and universities recognize AP courses when making admissions decisions. Advanced Placement is a rigorous academic program built on the commitment, passion, and hard work of students and educators from secondary schools and higher education. With 34 courses in a wide variety of subject areas, AP provides willing and academically-prepared high school students with the opportunity to study and learn at the college level. Through AP courses, certified AP teachers help students develop and apply the skills, abilities, and content knowledge they will need later in college/university. Each AP course is modeled upon a comparable college/university course, and college and university faculty play a vital role in ensuring that AP courses align with college/university-level standards. For example, through the AP Course Audit, AP teachers submit their syllabi for review and approval by college/university faculty. Only courses using syllabi that meet or exceed the college/university-level curricular and resource requirements for each AP course are authorized to carry the AP label. Advanced Placement courses culminate in a suite of college/university-level assessments developed and scored by college and university faculty members, as well as experienced AP teachers. AP exams are an essential part of the AP experience, enabling students to demonstrate their mastery of college-level course work. Strong performance on AP exams is rewarded by colleges and universities worldwide.
