If your student has expressed interest in taking one or more AP or Honors classes at Crescenta Valley High School next year, consider the following before making the commitment: (Read and initial each statement.) ____AP/Honors courses are college level classes. They are challenging and taught at an extremely fast pace. Students should plan to study up to two additional hours daily, per AP/Honors course. ____AP/Honors courses should not be taken to try to improve a student’s GPA. These courses are rigorous, and require maturity, commitment, and perseverance. More course content information is available at www.collegeboard.org or on the GUSD online course catalog. ____In selecting courses for next year, consider with your student’s academic strengths and interests, the rigor of the total academic program, commitment to any extra-curricular activities, work or family responsibilities, and work/life balance. Refer to the Time Management Tracker on the back side of the registration form. ____Consider the resiliency skills of your student. If stress, anxiety, or the fear of failure (or of not getting straight As) are major concerns, please discuss pros and cons of taking AP/Honors classes with the counselors. Before requesting that your student take an AP/Honors course next year, please be aware of the following: ____Enrollment in the desired course/s is not guaranteed. Counselors will ensure that the necessary prerequisites have been met so the student is prepared to be successful in the course. ____Due to scheduling conflicts, it may not be possible to enroll your student in all requested classes. ____Earning a low grade in an AP/Honors course does not entitle a student to drop the class. If a low grade is earned, it will be recorded on the student’s transcript. ____Students will remain in their selected AP/Honors course/s for the entire year. Once student schedules are assigned, no alternate course will be available, and classes may not be dropped. Please list below the AP/Honors class/es your student would like to take.
