Roosevelt High School offers several AP courses. Students self-track by opting to enroll in AP courses, trademarks of the College Board. In the tenth and eleventh grades, however, all students must take at least one AP course. In the tenth grade, students are required to take AP Human Geography for their Social Studies course, and in the eleventh grade students must take either AP Language and Composition or a University of Washington at the High School level course for their Language Arts course. Several other AP courses are offered in the 11th and 12th grade, including AP U.S. History, AP Chemistry, and AP Calculus.
According to U.S. News Education Ranking, in 2013 66% of Roosevelt students were enrolled in AP courses. While students prepare for the AP tests in their courses, they may also opt out of taking the exam should they choose. Seventy five percent of students enrolled in the AP courses, however, received a passing score, meaning they received a 3,4, or 5 on their exam.
Roosevelt is a high ranking school, ranking nationally at 464th, and 8th at the state level (US News, 2013). In order to remain highly competitive, Roosevelt continues to advertise its AP course participation, and its success.
