The AP Statistics course introduces students to the major concepts and tools for formulating questions, collecting and analyzing data, and interpreting results from data. The practices and skills for the course have been aligned to help students understand the statistical problem-solving process based on the American Statistical Association (ASA) recommendations. The content, skills, and assessments in the AP Statistics course focus on exploring data, sampling and experimentation, probability and simulation, and statistical inference. Students use technology, investigations, problem solving, and writing as they build conceptual understanding.
This course is designed to emphasize the study of the properties and applications of common geometric figures in two and three dimensions. It also emphasizes writing proofs to solve (prove) properties of geometric figures. Students who complete Geometry should take Algebra II next.

No matter what postsecondary path high school graduates choose, students must develop certain essential skills to design their own futures: critical thinking, collaboration, reading, writing, and relationship building. The development of these skills is rooted in belief in self. If students believe they are capable, there is a foundational confidence to learn and a resiliency to overcome setbacks.
It’s been said that change is the only true constant. Calculus helps make sense of change by grappling with questions that inspire thinkers from around the globe, across time, and in many disciplines. Can change occur in an instant? When is the next solar eclipse or the turning point for an economy? In AP Calculus AB, you’ll develop a deeper understanding of mathematical principles that can help you answer questions such as these.
