Advanced Coursework in Schools Serving Black or Hispanic Students, High Free/Reduced-Price Lunch Populations
A recent blog post from the US Government Accountability Office presents data today on which courses are being offered by schools serving
majority Black or Hispanic students and schools serving majority
free/reduced-price lunch beneficiaries. Among other things, it shows that only 32% of charter schools serving
“high-poverty and 75 to 100 percent Black or Hispanic” students are offering AP
courses, during the 2011-2012 school year.

APS Data Blog: Milestones School Level Results and Poverty
APS Data Blog: Milestones School Level Results and Poverty: The graph illustrates the relationship between 2015 Milestones results and poverty and Limited English Proficiency (LEP) status in Atlanta Public School district.
Quick Analysis
Based on the analysis provided by APS, you'll see that the data can be broken down for elementary and middle schools, and includes data for Atlanta's charter school populations. In addition to APS's findings, you can see that many traditional school are out-performing their "expected" test score performance (average, from regression line) given their "challenges" (defined therein by two indicators: (1) free and reduced lunch, (2) and limited language proficiency). The same is true for charter schools (however, notably, some charters -- 8 of 11 for elementary, 5 of 11 for middle -- fall below expected performance levels). The schools performing above expected levels are located throughout the district, including the southern parts of APS.
