Advanced Placement Summer Camp Offered For NH Juniors & Seniors

Camp opens Monday August 6.

Having AP classes on your high school transcript can be great for a student's college application, but the coursework is challenging, to say the least.

That's why is offering an AP Summer Camp for incoming juniors and seniors.  The camp will run from 9 – 11 a.m. beginning Monday, Aug. 6 through Thursday, Aug. 9, at the senior high school. 

The purpose of the camp is to expose incoming and continuing AP English Literature and AP English Language students to the terminology, skills, pace and content of the full-year course structure.  The camp experience will help ensure student success during the academic school year as well as success on the Advanced Placement test in the spring of 2013.
