AP® or Advanced Placement is a nationally recognized curriculum that could provide you with college credit. You may earn the credit by completing an AP® course and scoring well on the national AP® test for that subject. A fee applies to take an AP® exam. The test is currently scored on a five-point scale, with five as the highest score.
Each college has the right to set the score that they will accept for college credit. Check with the college of your interest for further information. Because it is a national curriculum, it is accepted in many states that will not accept college credit from our local universities and/or colleges.
College Credit (CC)
College credit classes offer high caliber high school students the opportunity to earn college credits and become familiar with the college experience while still in a high school setting. College credits earned through college credit programs are widely accepted at Missouri public colleges and universities and many other institutions across the country. This is a way for high school students to earn college credit at the same time they are earning high school credit.
**See table below for the full listing of AP, College Credit and Honors courses offered at Pattonville High School.
Weighted Grades
Weighted Grades
Weighted grade points differentiate between regular courses, honors, advanced placement courses, college credit, gifted courses and other courses that have been approved (by the Curriculum Coordinating Council) and are associated with the weighted grade scale. Weighted grade points are inflated by one point if the student earns an A, B or C in a weighted course. Weighted and non-weighted GPA and class ranks are reported on report cards and transcripts.
Top students will be recognized according to a cum laude system:
