AP ® CALCULUS AB A/B

Course Length: Yearlong Course

Credit: 1.0 credit

Recommended Grade Level: 11-12

Prerequisites: Successfully completed courses in which you studied algebra, geometry, trigonometry, analytic geometry, and elementary functions.

Course Description: This course is the equivalent of an introductory college-level calculus course. Calculus helps scientists, engineers, and financial analysts understand the complex relationships behind real-world phenomena. Students learn to evaluate the soundness of proposed solutions and apply mathematical reasoning to real-world models. Students also learn to understand change geometrically and visually (by studying graphs of curves), analytically (by studying and working with mathematical formulas), numerically (by seeing patterns in sets of numbers), and verbally. Students prepare for the AP exam and further studies in science, engineering, and mathematics.

AP® ENGLISH LANGUAGE & COMPOSITION  A/B (Semester 1 of 2 Semester Course)

Course Length: Yearlong

Credit: 1.0 

Grades: 11-12

Prerequisite(s): None 

Description:   AP English Language and Composition is an introductory college-level composition course. Students cultivate their understanding of writing and rhetorical arguments through reading, analyzing, and writing texts as they explore topics like rhetorical situations, claims and evidence, reasoning and organization, and style. The AP English Language and Composition course focuses on the development and revision of evidence-based analytic and argumentative writing, the rhetorical analysis of nonfiction texts, and the decisions writers make as they compose and revise. Students evaluate, synthesize, and cite research to support their arguments. Additionally, they read and analyze rhetorical elements and their effects in nonfiction texts—including images as forms of text—from a range of disciplines and historical periods.

Course Length: Yearlong

Credit: 1.0

Grades: 11-12

Prerequisite(s): None

Description:   AP English Literature and Composition provides students with the opportunity to read and write critically. The course is structured into units, based on the College Board guide. Students will closely examine big ideas such as: rhetorical situation, claims and evidence, reasoning and organization and style. They will read a variety of non-fiction writings, including scientific, sociological, philosophical, and narrative texts. The students will read, annotate, and write synthesis essays (using several primary sources), as well as argument and rhetorical analysis essays. Students will work through the writing process using peer review and teacher feedback to complete several drafts of their work. This course is designed to be equivalent of a one-semester introductory college–or university-level survey course. This course meets guidelines outlined in the College Board’s AP.

AP ® ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE A/B

Course Length: Yearlong

Credit: 1.0

Grade Level: 11-12

Prerequisites: Two years of high school laboratory science, including life science and physical science, along with at least one year of algebra    

Description: The AP Environmental Science course is designed to engage students with the scientific principles, concepts, and methodologies required to understand the interrelationships within the natural world. The course requires that students identify and analyze natural and human-made environmental problems, evaluate the relative risks associated with these problems, and examine alternative solutions for resolving or preventing them. Environmental science is interdisciplinary, embracing topics from geology, biology, environmental studies, environmental science, chemistry, and geography. The AP Environmental Science course is designed to be the equivalent of a one-semester, introductory college course in environmental science.
