Advanced Placement and Pre-AP Contract Alvin Independent School District

Alvin ISD’s goal is for students to be successful at the highest possible level. Pre-Advanced Placement (Pre-AP)/Advanced Placement (AP) classes in Alvin ISD stimulate and challenge students to perform at an advanced academic level. We are pleased that you are accepting the challenge of Pre-AP/AP work. Pre-AP classes are designed to prepare highly motivated students for the rigorous and fast-paced AP classes. Parental support plays a key role in the success of Pre-AP/AP students; therefore, please read and discuss the following points:

Pre-AP/AP courses require more individual study time per week than a regular class. Students will need to read and prepare outside of class to participate effectively in classroom discussions and activities.

Tutoring will be available for all students and required before dropping a Pre-AP/AP course. Review the *Academic Integrity Guidelines. Breach of the Academic Integrity Guidelines may result

in disciplinary consequences and possible removal from the Pre-AP/AP class. Pre-AP/AP:

1. Retesting and late work policy: Late work in a Pre-AP/AP course will be accepted only during the first nine weeks of the course

according to the *Alvin ISD Grading Policy. Students and teachers should discuss any extenuating circumstances that may allow for extensions.

Re-teaching and reevaluation will be provided should 50% of the students not demonstrate mastery of the skills taught. Reevaluation may include but is not limited to: oral examination, special assignment sheets, special homework assignment, or a formal test. The higher of the two grades will be accepted, per the Alvin ISD Grading Guidelines.

In a Pre-AP/AP class, students may retest once per nine weeks for a maximum replacement grade of 70. The request for retesting should be made by the student within one week after the test has been returned.

2. Students may exit a Pre-AP/AP course within the first nine weeks of instruction. At the end of the first semester, consideration for exiting a course will be given to those students with an average below 75. Students who fail the first semester of the Pre-AP/AP course are strongly recommended to transfer into an alternate course at the beginning of the second semester. A course within the content area will be utilized if there is not a comparable equivalent course. A non-credited course such as an open period or office aid will not be considered. Pre-requisites for exiting a Pre-AP/AP course are as follows: Prior to a conference, the student, parent, teacher, and the campus Advanced Academics/GT

Specialist must sign a Schedule Change Request form. Students are required to attend a minimum of two tutoring sessions.

3. It is an expectation that the student will take the AP test at the end of an AP course. There will be a $30 fee per test (waiver available for free/reduced lunch student).
