Important Policy Notes
AP Exam Fees: Every student taking an AP course next year must take the corresponding AP exam. The AP exam fee will be $98 for each of the following AP courses: US History and Psychology. The student is responsible for paying these exam fees. In the past, the Indiana Department of Education has reduced the exam fees to $10 for the following AP courses: English Language, English Literature, Calculus AB, Calculus BC, Statistics, Chemistry, and Biology. We anticipate this will be continued for the 2023-24 school year. If it is not, the student will be responsible for these exam fees.
