Our Spring AP exam payment collection is this week!!  We will be set up in the food court during lunch to accept your payment.  During this time you will be able to pay off your remaining balance for any exam you have already ordered.  You will also be able to order an exam for the first time for any Spring semester AP course.  You will also be able to order an exam for any other AP course if you missed the order deadline in the Fall.  If you missed the Fall deadline, College Board will charge an additional $40 late fee for each exam.

Exams remain $95/exam.  If you are taking four or more exams, the fourth and subsequent exams are $40/exam.  Research and Seminar exams are $143 each.  If you are on free and reduced lunch status, exams are $15/exam.

Please make checks payable to Oak Ridge High School.  Please put the student name and the exam name(s) on the Memo line to ensure that the payment is applied correctly.
