AP registration is in full swing and the deadline to register/pay for AP exams is November 1st. 

Registration information was handed out in all AP classrooms, but the registration/payment website is www.totalregistration.net/AP/242408

 

If you believe you may qualify for free and reduced lunch/education benefits, please go to the district website under departments, food service, educational benefits application and fill out the free and reduced lunch forms. The cost per AP exam is $12 for families that qualify for F/R benefits. 

 

New this year, in addition to registering and paying for exams on Total Registration, students must also login to their college board account or create an account if they are new to AP. Each student must login to their college board account and enter the "join code" that was provided to them by EACH of their AP teachers. www.myap.collegeboard.org

Teachers were supposed to have students do this step in their AP classes, but many students have not completed this step and it is a necessary step in order to have your exam you registered for and paid for in total Registration ordered for you.
