Advanced Placement

placeholder

The College Board’s Advanced Placement (AP) Program provides students with the opportunity to take college-level courses while still in high school and earn college credit, Advanced Placement or both for successful performance on the AP exams. RUSD is proud to offer dozens of Advanced Placement courses to help college-bound students save time and money. Plus, these courses help students stand out to college admissions departments and develop effective study habits for an easier transition to higher education. 

AP courses are offered at Horlick, Park and Walden III High Schools. Students from Case and REAL High Schools may take AP courses at Horlick, Park or Walden III. In addition, AP courses are offered through RUSD's Virtual Learning. To learn more about Virtual Learning, call (262) 664-8734.

RUSD offers many AP courses that cover a wide variety of academic areas and potential career and post-secondary interests. Examples include: psychology, U.S. government and politics, world history, microeconomics, physics, biology, chemistry, studio art, calculus, statistics, English language and composition, English literature and composition, Spanish and French.

Students enrolled in AP courses have an opportunity to take Advanced Placement exams in May of each year. The cost for each exam is the responsibility of the student. There may be assistance to help students with the cost of the exams. See your counselor for more information.
