Important Information about AP Testing Schedule for In-Person & Digital Exams
Below is the testing schedule for AP classes. The end times are estimates. Each exam will have different timing, and start times are absolute. If your child is testing online from home, please be advised that he or she will need a reliable Internet connection, a laptop or desktop computer with a power cord, and a space where they can work uninterrupted for approximately 3 ½ hours. If you anticipate having some difficulty in arranging these accommodations, please reach out to your child’s teacher as soon as possible so that we can assist you. Your student’s teachers will provide more details on their exams for both in-person and digital exams. A letter will also be sent home to parents in the next week describing the AP testing protocols in more detail. If you have any questions, please contact Mr. Kearns at kearns@ndhs.org or (818) 933-3644.
