AP Boot Camp is an interactive leadership conference where students discuss and practice the qualities required for success in AP classes, college and in the corporate world.  AP Boot Camp is designed for students who are enrolling in their first AP class in the fall.

This hands-on, cooperative team-building event focused on developing five attributes: Teamwork, Communication, Organization, Reading, and Problem Solving (T-CORPS).  

Boot Camp has four goals:

1.       Introduce students to the unique academic challenges of AP coursework.

2.       Guide students in skill development with focus on teamwork, communication, organization, reading, and problem solving.

3.       Discuss the practical application of these skills inside and outside the classroom.

4.       Provide opportunities for students to develop a support network with their peers.
