Be sure to register for both semesters.
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 ® Psychology (1st semester of 2 semester course)

AP ® PSYCHOLOGY
Course Length: Semester Course
Credit: 0.5 credit Pathway or Social Studies credit
Grades: 11-12
Prerequisite(s): Teacher/school counselor recommendation
Course Description: This course is the equivalent of an introductory college-level course. Students receive an overview of current psychological research methods and theories. They explore the therapies used by professional counselors and clinical psychologists and examine the reasons for normal human reactions: how people learn and think, the process of human development and human aggression, altruism, intimacy, and self-reflection. They study core psychological concepts, such as the brain and sensory functions, and learn to gauge human reactions, gather information, and form meaningful syntheses. Students prepare for the AP Exam and for further studies in psychology and life sciences.
AP ® Statistics (1st semester of 2 semester course)

AP ® STATISTICS A/B
Course Length: Yearlong Course
Credit: 1.0 credit
Recommended Grade Level: 11-12
Prerequisites: Success in Algebra II (or equivalent) and teacher/school counselor recommendation
Course Description: AP Statistics gives students hands-on experience collecting, analyzing, graphing, and interpreting real-world data. They will learn to effectively design and analyze research studies by reviewing and evaluating real research examples taken from daily life. The next time they hear the results of a poll or study, they will know whether the results are valid. As the art of drawing conclusions from imperfect data and the science of real-world uncertainties, statistics plays an important role in many fields. The equivalent of an introductory college-level course, AP Statistics prepares students for the AP exam and for further study in science, sociology, medicine, engineering, political science, geography, and business.

BASIC GRADE & CONSTRUCTION MATH
Course Length: Semester Course
Credit: 0.5 credit
Grades: 11-12
Prerequisite(s): Successful completion of Geometry and/or Integrated Math II
Course Description: This course helps students apply mathematical concepts and calculations using plansheets to better understand the construction process. Students trace the history of mathematics and examine systems of measurement used in construction. Instruction includes performing mathematical operations with whole numbers, common fractions, and decimal fractions. Emphasis is placed on accurate calculations and real-world application within construction contexts.
Notes: Completion of this course, along with Basic Equipment Fundamentals and Mobile Equipment Maintenance, at a C or better makes the student eligible for a Pre-Apprenticeship Certification endorsed by Local 139–International Union of Operating Engineers. / Completion of this course at a B or better can earn apprenticeship credit at Fox Valley Technical College.
