Honors & AP Courses

Honors

Because courses at the high school level are proficiency based, all courses coded Proficient (P) or Advanced (A), are honors courses, and students will receive honors credit.  Honors courses are available in all arts subject areas - dance, music, theatre arts, and visual arts. 

Advanced Placement (AP)

Advanced Placement courses are rigorous, and offer students an opportunity to complete college-level work in high school.  AP exams or portfolios are required.  Advanced Placement (AP) courses in the arts are available for: 

  • AP Music Theory

  • AP Art and Design (2D)
