Advanced Placement

Demonstrating excellence in college-level work in high school

Advanced Placement® courses and exam scores are objective measures to assess high school students’ learning and permit them to bypass, and in some cases gain credit for, introductory college courses. AP® exams are a recognized standard across the world and an integral part of the admissions decisions for many colleges and universities.

AP Classes in All Disciplines

Our curriculum is oriented around the idea that deep learning happens when students are challenged, and there is no better manifestation of challenge than AP® and post-AP coursework. Our unique implementation of AP® and post-AP coursework in core disciplines, world languages, social sciences and technology-related topics, facilitates content mastery at the college level.
