Advanced Placement Classes Offered
AP Capstone
AP Capstone™ is a diploma program based on two yearlong AP courses: AP Seminar and AP Research. These courses are designed to complement other AP courses that the AP Capstone student may take. Instead of teaching specific subject knowledge, AP Seminar and AP Research use an interdisciplinary approach to develop the critical thinking, research, collaboration, time management, and presentation skills students need for college-level work. The College Board developed the AP Capstone Diploma program at the request of higher education professionals, who saw a need for a systematic way for high school students to begin mastering these skills before college.
Dual Enrollment
Courses are offered through an agreement between St. Johns County Schools and St. Johns River State College, on both campuses. DE classes available on campus are Composition 1, Composition 2, National Government, and State and Local Government.
