Advanced Placement
Hamilton High is fortunate to be able to offer a wide variety of Advanced Placement (AP) courses for its students. AP courses feature a college-level curriculum and the opportunity to earn college credit by passing the requisite AP exam (s) at the end of the year. In addition, students taking AP classes and passing AP exams greatly improve their chances for admission to a college or university. Hamilton High is proud of the success of its students taking the AP exam in many different subject areas. We encourage all students to investigate the excellent AP courses offered on campus and to consider the benefits of successfully passing one or more AP exams.
2026 AP Exam Dates
- April 30, 2026 (11:59 p.m. ET) is the deadline for:
- AP Seminar and AP Research students to submit performance tasks as final and their presentations to be scored by their AP Seminar or AP Research teachers.
- AP Computer Science Principles students to submit their Create performance task as final.
AP Digital Practice
Students can:
- Try each type of multiple-choice and/or free-response question they’ll encounter on exam day.
- Preview the flow of the exam and practice using the tools and features in the app.
- Confirm that their technology works as expected.
Students will have access to two practice options:
- Digital Practice: A longer option students can use to fully explore the digital testing application.
- App Demo: A shorter option students can use to quickly confirm that the application is correctly installed, that questions display appropriately, and that they can enter answers.
CollegeBoard strongly recommends that all students taking digital exams do one of these practice options.
