AP/Honors Information Informacion de Cursos Avandados
GHS supports every student’s ambition to take on new and demanding challenges, such as taking an Honors/AP class. However, the decision to enroll in an Honors/AP course requires a great deal of thought and consideration due to the rigorous workload, high-reaching expectations, and maturity level that these courses demand. We encourage all students to talk to their teachers, counselors, parents, and other trusted advisers about their interest in taking AP or Honors classes so they can feel confident in their decision and better prepare themselves for the challenge that lays ahead.
Students must make informed decisions about courses requiring summer assignments because these courses will not be dropped at the beginning of the school year due to incomplete work.
