• Possible attainment of an associate degree (61 College Credits) from LCCC 

• Students are able to receive college credit while in high school at no cost, saving significant tuition costs towards college. 

• Students are able to experience the dynamics of a college classroom before entering college. 

• Students easily transition from high school to college with a working knowledge of what to expect. 

• Successful completion of dual enrollment courses can shorten the time to college degree completion. 

• College credit is earned at the same time as high school credit. •

• Students narrow down their career interests by having the chance to explore a variety of fields at the college level. 

The Advanced Placement Program (AP), administered by The College Board, offers college-level courses that are taught at local high schools by high school teachers. In 1955 the AP program was initiated in the United States. Since then, approximately 8 million students have taken advantage of this program. ASD offers 22 Advanced Placement courses to its students. The AP program allows students to experience postsecondary coursework and its increased academic rigor while still in enrolled in the supportive environment of their local high school. The advantages of taking AP courses for students are many: 

• College credit can be given to students who pass the AP exam (passing is generally considered scoring three or higher out of five, although some schools only accept a four or a five score for credit). 

• Advanced Placement courses offer an accelerated skill development curve. 

• AP courses can help students acquire the skills and habits they will need to be successful in college. Students will improve their writing skills, sharpen problem- solving abilities, and develop time management skills, discipline, and study habits. 

• Real college conditioning– Research consistently shows that students who are successful in AP typically experience greater academic success in college than students who do not participate. 

• Advanced Placement courses offer students a seamless pathway between high school and college.
