General Course Information and Documents...

High-School Course Syllabus:
 AP Calculus BC HS Course Syllabus

If you take this course for Rio Salado credit, you are also subject to the Rio Salado syllabus rules (these are still being developed for this year):
 Rio Salado Course Syllabus - MAT221
 Rio Salado Course Syllabus - MAT231

Taking AP Calculus BC for college credit

You can optionally choose to take AP Calculus BC for college credit. If you want college credit, there are two ways to get it:

1) by taking the AP Calculus BC Exam in May

2) by enrolling in two 1-semester, 4-credit Rio Salado courses:
     Fall: MAT221 Calculus w/Analytic Geometry I
     Spring: MAT231 Calculus w/Analytic Geometry II

(You can take the AP exam *and* enroll in the Rio Salado classes, choose only one of these options, or do neither and just take the course for high school math credit.)
