Advanced Placement Exams are ordered and administered by the district. Any student that wishes to take an AP Exam must register in the "Exam Only" section and pay (financial aid is available) for each exam they want to take by November 1.

Students who are in an "AP" labeled class will receive registration directions from their teachers in Canvas by October 1st.

Students not in an "AP" class who want to take the exam should contact their school testing coordinator.
