2026/2027 AP Test Purchasing is open from Oct. 1st-Nov. 6th. AP test purchases are not required, but are highly recommended to our AP students! To purchase an AP Test, students must have filled out the Intent To Purchase Google Form and be enrolled in AP Classroom using a teacher provided join code through collegeboard.org.
For the 2026/2027 school year, the District is subsidizing half of the cost of each AP Test, making the price a student pays per test only $50, or $5 if they qualify for a fee reduction. Tests purchased after November 6th will result in a $40 late fee per exam. For payment collection, please visit Mrs. Price in the main office.
