Advanced Placement Courses require students to draw upon a reservoir of systematic factual knowledge in order to exercise analytical skills intelligently. Thus, AP courses are reading and writing intensive and require a high degree of student investment of both time and effort.
End-of-course examinations will be given in United States History. The yearly grade will be calculated by counting the teacher assigned grades for the course and counting the end-of course test as a percentage.
