Considerations when taking an AP course
Students who enroll in AP classes take on responsibilities not required of standard high school students. AP students must work independently on most assignments. They will have considerably more homework than other students. They are expected to produce high-level work on a consistent basis. I should not have to contact the parent of an AP student regarding behavior issues. The reward for this hard work is an extra quality point averaged into the student’s GPA and (assuming success on the AP Exam) college credit. Please discuss with your student the commitment he/she is making in enrolling in an AP course. No student should enroll in an AP course who simply wants to inflate their GPA.
