[quote=Anonymous]The conundrum of no AP classes for us is that while the honors/advanced classes are more up-to-date than APs and provide a rigorous/deep learning experience, they can be tricky if you need help as there is no standard text book or obvious website resources to fall back on. There are so many available resources for standard AP classes (the textbooks have practice test questions, websites have explanatory videos, there are tutors who specialize in AP curriculum, etc.). Teachers help, but part of being in an honors class is figuring out some of the content for yourself which can be very time consuming. And yes, for those taking APs they need to study beyond what is taught in an honors/advanced class--not harder information, but different. Teachers can outline what is different in their curriculum vs AP though so the extra study can be targeted.[/quote]
