What is the difference between AP and honors or pre-AP classes?
Advanced Placement exams are given by a national testing service only in certain subjects. The courses Carroll ISD offers that specifically address the curriculum of AP exams and prepare students to pass those exams are designated as AP classes. These classes use college level textbooks and progress at a college level pace. Pre-AP classes are accelerated classes that prepare students to move into the AP classes. Honors classes are accelerated classes for which Carroll does not offer a successive AP course.
