Broaden Advanced Coursework with One AP Course

Many students have the potential for advanced coursework yet never enter it. Traditional signals, such as prior honors enrollment, test scores, and teacher recommendations identify some of these students but can miss others whose readiness shows up in different ways. One well-placed AP® course in grade 9 or 10 creates an earlier, more manageable entry into advanced coursework.

This webinar walks through how a late, stacked course model limits how many students can enter advanced course work—and how an earlier on-ramp changes that. You’ll learn how to choose a strong first AP course and see course examples, such as AP Computer Science Principles and AP Seminar, that give students a genuine entry point into college-level work.

In this webinar:

	Why an earlier on-ramp to AP broadens participation in advanced coursework
	How to identify a first AP course with high student interest and few or no prerequisites
	Course examples that work well as a first AP experience
	How starting with just one AP course can contribute to your school’s college readiness indicators
