AP Information

AP students and Parents…

There is a big change this year with getting AP scores.  I am telling students about this change when they do the pre-administration sessions with me. 

 

Score reports will be available online in July.  They will no longer be mailed; they will only be online.

 

Please be reminded that they have to have a College Board account number to access their scores in July.  They can go on to www.apscore.org to sign up for a College Board account.  They would already have one if they have registered or taken an SAT.  Most juniors and seniors will have done this.  Sophomores may or may not have done this.  Remind them to keep username and password somewhere they can access later.  Students also need to provide email address to receive a notification when AP scores are available (they can provide this on answer sheet during pre-administration sessions).  They will also need to provide their AP number.  This number is given during pre-administration sessions with me and is in their student pack they keep after last AP exam. 

 

***All AP students must do a pre-administration session with me.  There will be one tomorrow (Tuesday) at 3:10 and another on Thursday at 3:10.  Sessions last 30 minutes.  You must attend only one of these sessions.  Teachers have been reminding them for a couple of weeks and there have been 3 prior sessions. 

A couple of thoughts…

 

Career Day…

 

Next Tuesday we will be having Career Day.  It will only affect 1^st, 2^nd periods and Chapel on this day.  All seniors are to report to the lunchroom at 8:15.  It is expected that you report at 8:15 even if you have 1^st period free.  We will be providing breakfast at 8:15.  Then you will break into small groups.  We will be done in time for 3^rd period.  We are bringing in about 8-9 guests on that day.  Please arrive on time and be appreciative of our guests taking time out of their day for us.

 

Caps and Gowns…

 

Herff Jones will be back on campus on that same day (Tuesday, April 9^th) during the lunch period to hand out caps and gowns.  We will probably set them up in HS Lobby.  They should have contacted you regarding the price.  I think the price they sent to you is $34.00.  This is the rental cost of gown (turn in on graduation day) and purchase (you keep) of hat and tassel.  Please see their instructions for payment. 

 

College Updates…

 

Upon reviewing my lists, I know that a lot of you have made up your mind about next year.  For many of you, things are still up in the air.  Many of you just haven’t decided or are waiting on some schools.  Please keep me posted if you hear from a school or if you make a decision.  Your acceptances and decisions are important to us.  As a school, we like to keep up with all acceptances and, of course, decisions.  There are many of you who have not told me of your acceptances or decisions. 

 

Keep in mind that May 1^st is considered the deadline to let a college know your decision. 

 

Next Week…

 

I will be off campus next Wednesday-Friday (April 10-12^th).  I will be at a conference and visiting colleges in Boston.  If you need something at this time, you can contact me by email.
