We're Approved!!

I received word today from the College Board, the governing body for AP that our course has been approved for the 2009-10 academic year. This is a formality that all new AP courses have to go through. I had to submit the syllabus for the course by August 1, and the content of the course had to meet the requirements set by the College Board. After some minor revisions, I received word this afternoon that the course has been approved, meaning, this course will be recognized as a valid Advanced Placement course and any credits earned (by good marks on the AP exam next May) will transfer to an institute of higher learning. Hooray for AP!!!

Speaking of the syllabus...I have a few things to add to make it more "student friendly," but I was wondering if you would want to see the syllabus before we reconvene in September or can you wait until school is in session to find out what the year will hold? Please let me know either way.

Happy reading!!

  1. I would be happy to look at the syllabus. That way I can mentally prepare for the class that determines if I graduate or not. Hahaa
