Beginning on Monday, January 30th, registration for AP exams will be available online. Use the website www.TotalRegistration.net/AP/444095 The registration and payment process will take a few minutes and can be completed from any computer with Internet access. The dates for registration are:

Mon, Jan 30– Mon, Feb 20, 2012

The cost per exam is $90.50 per exam. This increase is due to TEA no longer supplementing exam costs.

Late Registration is Tues, Feb 21, 2012 – Mon, Feb 27, 2012. Registration during this period has an additional $25 late fee.

Scoring well on an AP exam can often earn students college credit for their high school class, saving a significant amount on tuition. If you have questions about financial assistance, please contact Shandalyn Porter, LHS Dean of Instruction, at shandalyn.porter@leanderisd.org or 512-570-1080.

Most students at LHS have completed their choice sheets for next year's classes. Students viewed a presentation and filled out a course selection sheet. If you have not registered yet, please get this done by Feb. 3.

Below are links to the PSAT/NMSQT score report presentation shown to students last week. This is a detailed explanation of the score report to help students understand how to maximize their efforts in preparing for the SAT in the future. Please use the unique code on the score report to access My College Quick Start on the CollegeBoard website. This is a valuable tool that will give students and parents a closer look at the scores as well as begin a college map based on student identified interests and PSAT scores.
