AP Testing
The Advanced Placement (AP) Program is a cooperative educational endeavor between secondary schools, colleges, and universities. It exposes high school students to college level material through involvement in an AP course, and it gives them the opportunity to show what they have mastered by taking an AP Exam. Colleges and universities can then grant credit, placement, or both to students who have completed the exam. The granting of credit and/or placement is at the discretion of each individual college and university.
For more information on the AP test please see the flyer

The test will be administered during May of 2023. If a student signs up and is unable, or chooses not to take it, forfeits $40.00 to the AP program. Any student who qualifies for free or reduced lunch, should see Mr. Shomion to learn about a reduced fee.
