Students Enrolled in AP Courses

Students choosing to take one or more tests beyond the cumulative, six FCPS-funded exams will be charged a fee of $93 per AP test. Students who do not return a signed opt-out form to Mary Halfhill in Student Services by Friday, February 2, 2018 will be registered for all AP tests associated with current courses and will be charged fees as outlined above. Contact  AP Academic Coordinator, Phil Cronin (pscronin@fcps.edu), or Assessment Coach, Kim Nelson (ksnelson@fcps.edu), if you have questions.
