Advanced Placement 2
College-Level Course Opportunities
Among the range of classes offered are accelerated, multi-disciplinary courses designed for in-depth and college-level opportunities. Selected 10th, 11th, and 12th-grade students have the opportunity to engage in college-level coursework through the College Board’s Advanced Placement (AP).
Currently, upper school students can choose from an extensive selection of Advanced Placement classes. A sampling of AP courses offered includes 2-D & 3-D Design, Biology, Chemistry, Chinese Language, English Language and Composition, English Literature and Composition, Music Theory, Physics, Psychology, Music Theory, Spanish, and US History.
Due to the rigorous nature of the Maumee Valley curriculum, it is usually recommended that students take no more than three AP courses per year. However, if a student wishes to take a more challenging course load, meetings with advisors and the college counselor are easily arranged. Also, if your child wishes to take an AP exam that isn’t offered as a class, an order can be placed for that specific exam. However, the student’s test prep will have to be accomplished outside the classroom.

Last year 36% of the 99 Maumee Valley students who sat for Advanced Placement exams last spring have been designated AP Scholars by The College Board in recognition of their exceptional achievement on the college-level Advanced-Placement (AP) Program Exams. Nationally, only about 18% of the more than 1.8 million high school students worldwide who took AP Exams performed at a sufficiently high level to merit the recognition of AP Scholar.
