"AP training helps teachers to better prepare their students for Advanced Placement courses and examinations. It is a rigorous training program required by the State of Texas for all teachers who will be conducting AP classes at the high school level or Pre-AP classes at the middle school level," he explained.

The one-day AP session in administration will be held on Friday, July 31 from 8:30 a.m. - 3 p.m. Tuition is $75. Lunch will be provided.

All other AP sessions are week-long and will be offered July 27 - 31 from 8:30 a.m. - 4:30 p.m. Monday - Thursday, and 8:30 a.m. - 12 noon Friday. Tuition is $300 per session. Lunch will be provided Monday - Thursday.
