Advancement Placement (AP)

 

Deciding to take an AP course lets colleges and universities know that you have what it takes to succeed in an undergraduate environment. When admissions officers see “AP” on your transcript, they know that you have experience taking college level classes and that you are better prepared for the challenges of college. Taking AP is a sign that you’re up for the most rigorous classes your high school has to offer.

By taking an AP course and scoring successfully on the AP Exam in May, you can save on college expenses: most colleges and universities nationwide offer college credit, advanced placement, or both, for qualifying AP Exam scores. These credits can allow students to save college tuition, study abroad, or secure a second major. AP can transform what once seemed unattainable into something within reach.

Your teachers are trained in their subject area and will support you by making sure of the following:

  • Students sign up for  College Board on the first week of class.

  • AP Classroom is used to give students access to the lessons and assessments that are aligned with videos, progress checks, writing practice, and more.

  • Student-centered classroom that allows student to feel safe to make mistakes while discussing, reading, and writing on daily topics specific to the subject matter.  AP is for every student.

  • An understanding of the assessment format and objectives throughout the year.  

  • Plan engaging lessons so students can meet college-level reading and writing.

  • Provide students with various writing samples and AP rubrics via Google Classroom.

  • Provide written or electronic feedback to students.
