- Explore all the tools you have as an educator! AP Classroom continues to have great additions and we are building our own digital library ---> JOIN OUR GOOGLE CLASSROOM HERE.

- AP Classroom - Get all your students enrolled in AP Classroom regardless of their current decision about the exam....it is preloaded with great resources and if they choose to test, it is the only way we can order their exam.
- Ask your scholars with IEP/504 plan to ask their case manager about testing accommodations.
- If scholars want to request reduced exam fees, they need to complete a short form and the LCFF in Parent PowerSchool. They will be emailed next steps shortly after completing the form.

- New AP Daily videos released! Please encourage your scholars to review on their own time - literally a review of the entire course made by the test makers!
- Very strongly recommend hosting study sessions and/or mock exams. Sites should be able to use Saturday School funds to pay educators for their time.
- Share Exam Day Details with scholars so they know when and where to arrive, as well as what to bring or not bring.

- Proctors are always needed and imagine how comforting for scholars to see you in their exam room! Educators can help with any exam that isn't in their discipline (ex: English proctor Science...Math proctor History...Arts proctor World Languages...)
- If scholars miss their exam day and still intend to test, they MUST request a late date. Otherwise, we will mark the exam as unused and they will not have a chance to retest.
