JLHS supports every students' ambition to take on new and demanding challenges, such as taking an Honors or Advanced Placement (AP) course. However, the decision to enroll in an AP or Honors class requires a great deal of thought and consideration due to the rigorous work load, high-reaching expectations, and maturity level that these courses demand. We encourage all students to talk to their teachers, counselors, parents, and other trusted advisors 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.
All students taking an AP or Honors class must sign the AP/Honors Contract and submit to their counselor with their registration form.
