[quote=Anonymous]DS public HS allows kids with 85 GPA in a course (regular or honors) to take AP offered for subject. If teacher does not recommend, students can appeal and try the course for 5 weeks, maintain an 85 or drop without a withdrawal on transcript. Approx 35% are in AP. Most are definitely qualified. Some are not initially, but step up when they adjust to the pace and rigor (DS). This particular principal is extremely fair to students who advocate for themselves (also DS). He sees it as one of the most important skills a kid needs for college and life. [/quote]
