The district’s AP program, which caters to 409 students, also gives students the ability to not only earn college credits, but also demonstrate to colleges that they are willing to go beyond minimum high school requirements by choosing to take on more rigorous AP courses.

Westhampton Beach currently provides 21 AP courses, including popular classes such as AP World History, AP Macroeconomics, AP United States History and AP English and Language & Composition. The district also started offering AP Computer Science this year.
