Weighted Courses

The faculty and administration commend students for challenging themselves by enrolling in Advanced Placement (AP) courses. Saddle Brook High School recognizes this commitment by awarding additional weight to a student's GPA for AP courses. However, the expectation is that students put in the time and effort to prepare for the AP exams. Students who do not register for their respective course's AP exam by the end of Semester 1 will receive honors credit for the course. Proof of registration should be submitted to the guidance department no later than the last day of Semester 1. 

Students who take the AP Exam will be reimbursed one-half the fee of the test if they score a 3 or 4 and full reimbursement if they score a 5 on the exam.

A student who transfers into Saddle Brook High School will be eligible only for as many quality points as they could have possibly earned had they been in attendance in Saddle Brook High School. Furthermore, quality points will only be awarded for classes that are comparable to those offered at Saddle Brook High School. 

Note: No quality points will be issued for courses completed in summer school.
