Welcome to AP Biology! We have a full and exciting year ahead of us! This course is designed to be the equivalent of an introductory college biology course taken by biology majors during their 1st year. It is my desire for students to see the evidence of our Creator God through our study. Be prepared to work hard and experience the rewards in a job well done!
