Pre-Advanced Placement (Pre-AP) & Honors Courses
Overview
All students deserve the opportunity to prepare themselves for rigorous college-level courses. Pre-AP courses allow middle and high school students to build skills to succeed in Advanced Placement (AP), dual credit, OnRamps, and beyond.
Benefits of taking Pre-AP courses and Honors Courses
Pre-AP is designed to be accessible to all students. Back mapped from College Board’s AP Program, Pre-AP grade-level instruction develops skills for future success with AP.
Higher GPA points are awarded in Tier II advanced courses to reflect the rigor of the curriculum. For example, a "100" in a Pre-AP course equals 4.5 rather than 4.0 in a regular class. See Local Policy EIC for the letter grade conversion chart.
