Armed ForCes Enlist is the US Army, Navy, Air Force, Coast Guard or Marines GLOSSARY AND IMPORTANT INFORMATION Honors Honors classes are designed to prepare students for enrollment in regular AP classes that are offered at the 10th, 11th and 12th grade level. Honors classes are offered to 9th and 10th graders. Students are expected to do considerable outside reading and must complete other advanced assignments. Advanced classes are subject to different grade and curriculum requirements and operate at a higher and faster pace than regular classes. Students who are unable to meet the class requirements can find themselves being removed from these classes and placed in regular classes. Students should refer to their advanced class teacher and to the secondary grading procedures for more information. (Honors Courses are weighted.) Advanced Placement (AP) Advanced Placement courses, sponsored by College Board, allow students to undertake college-level academic learning through a rigorous curriculum. The Advanced Placement Program is a cooperative educational endeavor between secondary schools and colleges and universities. It gives high school students exposure to college-level material through involvement in an AP course, and then gives them an opportunity to demonstrate that knowledge by taking an AP Exam. A fee is charged for each examination and graded on a scale of 1 to 5. Colleges and universities are then able to grant credit, placement, or both to these students, depending on scores earned and college policy. The College Board is the governing body of the AP Program; and as such, all AP courses and their instructors must adhere to specific guidelines set forth by the College Board. Students should contact directors of admissions at colleges of their choice to ask about specific advanced placement and credit policies. For more information concerning AP courses, check the AP Central website at collegeboard.com. For further information on how much credit is accepted at various colleges,
