AP Parent Summit- Many Thanks!

We want to thank everyone who participated in our first annual AP Parent Summit!

We had a great turn-out, considering this was the first year for the event. Mr. Brad Harper, who serves the Cedar Ridge community as the Social Studies Department Chair, an AP U.S. History teacher, and the campus AP Coordinator, planned and coordinated the summit. I want to thank Mr. Harper and all of the AP and PAP teachers who shared information about their courses through the "trade-show" and also all the break-out sessions presenters. A big "thank you"to the college students and parents who served on the student and parent panels, sharing their AP experiences and answering questions.

We received great feedback throughout the summit and are looking forward to utilizing the feedback to help guide the continuous improvement of our AP programs and communication efforts. We are already talking about planning our next event!
