EHS AP Academy

Edgewater High School’s Advanced Placement Academy is designed as a challenging college preparatory curriculum emphasizing academic rigor. It is intended to prepare students to be successful upon entry into a selective four year postsecondary institution and offers the potential for earning college credit while in high school. The Advanced Placement Academy is an interdisciplinary program focusing on Liberal Arts through Pre-AP and AP courses

The purpose of AP examinations is to allow students to demonstrate college-level achievement in certain subjects. Students who do well on the AP exams may receive college credit or advanced standing at a college or university. The AP exams are typically taken by juniors and seniors enrolled in Advanced Placement courses, although freshman and sophomores and students not enrolled in AP courses may also take the exams. The test combines multiple choice, essay, problem-solving and other questions. Students receive a score on a scale of 1 to 5, with a 3 usually considered an indicator of college-level achievement. The exams are given during the month of May.

By completing the requirements of the Advanced Placement Academy, students have the opportunity to earn prestigious designations, including state and/or national AP Scholar with Honor, AP Scholar with Distinction, and AP International Scholar. Admittance into the Advanced Placement Academy is by application. Students must reside within the Edgewater High School district to be eligible to apply. Contact Student Services at 407-835-4903 for applications.
