AP Test Registration
"It is officially AP season! AP test registration will begin October 11th and continue through November 1st. Please see the form that your students will be receiving from their AP teachers that week. We realize it's early, but we need an accurate count this year because fees are returning. Any exam ordered AFTER November 1st will incur a $40 late fee. Cancelled exams after November 1st and no show exams (on the day of the exam in May) will also incur a $40 fee. Advanced Opportunities does pay for most AP exams, which is a $96 savings. Please see your AP teacher, counselor, or AP coordinator for questions."

STUDENT DROP OFF ZONE
Attention Parents & Students, the student drop off zone is in the East Parking lot.
Parents and Students will no longer be able to drop off/pickup students at the front of the School, due to continued issues with buses not being able to gain access to the bus pickup/drop off zone. Please help keep the drop off area running smoothly by pulling all the way up to the student entrance double doors near the south end of the east student parking lot.
Thank you for all your help with this matter.
