Stafford High School

The Advanced Placement (AP) and Early College Experience (ECE) Program offers an opportunity for students to broaden their educational horizons. Through successful completion of high school and college course requirements, students may attain both high school and college credits for these courses. Minimal requirements for invitation into this challenging program include:

• Grade in previous course was at least 85%
• Recommendations by teachers who have previously taught the student in a similar course
• SAT /PSAT test scores need to meet or exceed benchmark in applicable areas

Initially, teacher recommendation for enrollment in these programs is based on the student's previous academic performance, class rank, test scores, and interest. A motivated student, not initially invited to participate, may seek admission through an application process in which the student shares his /her rationale for inclusion.
