Pre – Advanced Placement Program (Pre-AP),  9th to 12th Grades

 

Pre-AP/AP classes provide students an opportunity for learning that goes beyond just facts and figures.  The rich course material, classroom discussions and demanding assignments typical of Pre AP/AP will help your child develop the content mastery and critical thinking skills expected of college students, and feel confident in his or her abilities.  What’s more, by participating in AP, your child has the opportunity to earn college credit and to stand out in the college admission process.

 

Pre AP classes provide a challenging curriculum that is aligned with the AP course curriculum objectives. These classes build a firm academic foundation that prepares students for the AP courses offered at the 10th—12th grade level.

 

AP curriculum consists of university/college level courses that have been developed by the College Board for students in grades 10th – 12th.  These courses are equivalent to college freshman and sophomore introductory courses which are available to students as early as the sophomore year in high school.  This program encourages students to sit for College Board exams after course completion.  Successful completion of AP exams gives students the possibility of receiving AP and/or credit hours in universities and colleges.
