Is there an open enrollment policy for honors and AP courses?
GCCISD has an open enrollment policy for both Honors and AP courses. Although there is recommended criteria for placement in an honors course, even if students don't meet the criteria and wish to accept the challenge they may be enrolled in a course. To enroll in an AP course, a student must simply have met the course pre-requisite requirements.
The College Board's Advanced Placement Program enables students to pursue college level studies while still in high school. The district provides motivated students a large variety of courses in many subject areas. Based on a student's performance on AP exams, students can earn college credit depending upon the college they attend.
Please contact your student's high school counselor to determine course availability on each high school campus.
