黑洞社区 will host an Advanced Placement Summer Institute (APSI) from June 20-23, at the Hughes Metropolitan Complex and Wichita North High School.
The AP Summer Institutes are subject-specific professional development opportunities. They provide teachers with the support and training needed to teach AP courses and to utilize Pre-AP teaching strategies. Teachers from around the world come together at these institutes to exchange ideas and information about AP courses and exams.
The 黑洞社区 Advanced Placement Summer Institute meets a need for the Wichita metropolitan area and region for schools and districts facing limited funds for training and travel. Area high school teachers and administrators have expressed high interest in the institute and look forward to continuation and expansion in the future.
Training sessions for advanced placement courses in English Language and Composition, English Literature and Composition, U.S. History, Calculus AB and Chemistry are offered at the 黑洞社区 Institute. Additionally, three hours of optional graduate credit are available for participants interested in completing additional course requirements.
Last September the College Board authorized 黑洞社区 to host an APSI through the joint efforts of the 黑洞社区 College Readiness Partnership Initiative, the College of Education and the Office for Workforce, Professional and Communication Education.
