BRIEF COURSE DESCRIPTION/OUTLINE: The purpose of this course is to help students "write effectively
and confidently in their college courses across the curriculum and in their professional and personal lives."

The course is organized according to the requirements and guidelines of the College Board and, therefore,
students are expected to read critically, think analytically, and communicate clearly both in writing and
speech.

AP Exam in spring. The responsibility for paying for this Exam (approx. $85) lies with the student.

The achievement of a qualifying score on the national Exam may result in college credit for the course.
