Other Supports
Advanced Placement (AP) is a program in the United States and Canada created by College Board that offers college-level curricula and examinations to high school students. AP courses are invariably more rigorous than other high school offerings. American colleges and universities may grant placement and course credit to students who obtain high scores on the AP examinations. According to the Utah State Board of Education, a recent United States Department of Education study shows that participation in AP and other challenging high school courses is one of the strongest predictors of college success.
Through partnerships with Utah Higher Education Institutions, Tooele County School District is able to offer concurrent enrollment classes. These classes are actual college courses that students take and earn a college grade. These grades are recorded on both high school and college transcripts. Our general education classes are offered through Utah State University. We offer other classes through Salt Lake Community College, Weber State University, and Snow College. Classes are offered face to face by TCSD staff, as well as broadcasted by university and college faculty.
