Advanced Placement Classes
All Kern High School District schools, with the exception of Foothill High School that has the International Baccalaureate Program, offer Advanced Placement classes. These courses are comparable to college classes, and students may earn college credit for them by passing the Advanced Placement test related to the courses. These are difficult classes, which require dedication to complete and to prepare for the exam. In addition to the college credit that may be earned, students do receive enhanced grade points for grades of C or better. With few exceptions (e.g. European History), Advanced Placement courses are available to students during the junior and senior years.

While all sites have a variety of Advanced Placement courses, the offerings do differ from school to school. Students interested in these classes should contact their counselor to see which subjects are available at their site.
