Advanced Placement

The James S. Rickards High School Advanced Placement (AP) Program provides students with rigorous, collegelevel coursework and the opportunity to earn college credit while still in high school. Our AP offerings span multiple academic areas, allowing students to challenge themselves, explore their interests, and prepare for postsecondary success. Participation in AP courses helps students build strong study skills, strengthen their transcripts, and gain a competitive edge for college admissions. If your child is interested in enrolling in an AP course or learning more about available options, please contact your student’s counselor for guidance and next steps.
