本文以批判种族理论为框架，探讨了高级安排（AP）1课程的访问和可用性，以及它们如何影响拉丁裔/O2和非裔美国学生的教育成果。为了开始批判性思考AP课程的入学模式，我们提出以下问题：学校结构，实践和话语如何有助于维持种族和种族歧视以获取AP课程？拉丁裔和非裔美国人和父母如何应对有助于维持种族和种族歧视的教育结构，实践和话语，以获得AP课程？最后，学校的改革如何帮助结束参加AP课程的种族和种族歧视？为了回答这些问题，我们检查了加利福尼亚州的一个学区，该地区为大量拉丁裔/O和非裔美国学生提供服务。围绕AP课程的访问和可用性出现了三种不同的模式：拉丁裔/o学生在范围内的AP入学界中的代表性不足；为城市，低收入拉丁裔和非裔美国人社区提供服务的学校的学生入学率低；即使拉丁裔/O和非裔美国人的学生就读有大量学生参加AP课程的高中，他们也没有同样代表AP入学率。我们称这种结构和过程为“学校内的学校”。
Using critical race theory as a framework, this article examines the access and availability of Advanced Placement (AP)1 courses and how they impact educational outcomes for Latina/o2 and African American students. To begin thinking critically about enrollment patterns of AP courses we ask the following questions: How do school structures, practices, and discourses help maintain racial and ethnic discrimination in access to AP courses? How do Latina/o and African American students and parents respond to the educational structures, practices, and discourses that help maintain racial and ethnic discrimination in access to AP courses? Finally, how can school reforms help end racial and ethnic discrimination in access to AP courses? In order to answer these questions, we examined a school district in California that serves a large population of Latina/o and African American students. Three different patterns emerged around access and availability of AP courses: Latina/o students are disproportionately underrepresented in AP enrollment district-wide; schools that serve urban, low-income Latina/o and African American communities have low student enrollment in AP courses; and even when Latina/o and African American students attend high schools with high numbers of students enrolled in AP courses, they are not equally represented in AP enrollment. We call this structure and process "Schools Within Schools."
