The HHS PTSA Student Achievement Event took place on Tuesday, December 6, and awarded over 150 students who had all A’s and no unexcused absences or tardies.
 
The students were able to choose any prize from the gift card tree or gift from the table, and all were given free sandwich cards from Zaxby’s as well as candy canes(one for them and one to give away as a good luck on exams or a thank you to a teacher).  It was so fun seeing their excitement and helping them decide what to choose!  
 
A HUGE thank you to Jennifer Dillard, Carolyn Blue, and Kari Flippo who graciously helped during the event. Several very generous businesses provided donations and are listed below.  This event wouldn’t have been possible without their generosity.  Please support these local businesses:

AP Exams Important Information

 

AP Exam Pricing:

Most exams cost $97 each including core and elective courses.  Biology, Environmental Science and Physics 1 & 2 exams cost $49 each due to supplemental state grant money.

 

AP Exam Registration & Ordering:

Students must register for an exam in “My AP Classroom” through College Board during each AP class in which the student is enrolled.  Exams cannot be ordered if students are not enrolled in “My AP Classroom”.  Check with your AP teacher for verification of enrollment.

 

Tuesday, November 15, 2022:

Deadline to make regular payment for each exam order placed in “My AP Classroom”.  After this date, student exam order request status will be changed to “NO”, and late fees will apply.

 

Friday, March 10, 2023, 3:00pm:

Deadline to order and pay for an exam for the 2023 year.  After this date, students will not be able to take an exam in May.

 

AP Exam Online Payment Instructions:

  1. Go to huntsvillehigh.org
  2. Go to "My School Fees".
  3. Sign into your account or create an account if necessary. New accounts will require the student’s 10-digit SSID#. Email Almond@hsv-k12.org for assistance.
  4. Select "Huntsville High".
  5. Select your student or add your student.
  6. Select "AP Exam Fee".
  7. Follow instructions through checkout.

Additional Notes:

Online payment via My School Fees is preferred. Be sure to select each exam for every AP class in which your student is enrolled. Note: U.S. Government and Economics are separate courses and require two (separate) exam payments.
 
Checks and money orders will still be accepted. Please make them payable to Huntsville High School.  Checks/MOs should be submitted to our bookkeeper, Mrs. Almond, in the Main Building, Main Office (in person or by USPS).
 
IMPORTANT NOTE: A $40 fee will be assessed in addition to the $97 cost for any late exam orders (after November 15th). A $40 fee will be assessed for exam cancellations after November 15, 2022. A $40 fee will be assessed for students who order an exam but no show on exam day resulting in an “unused exam”. Any unpaid AP Exam assessments and/or penalty fees will be added to the student school account and must be cleared prior to graduation.
 
There is no exam fee for students who are approved for Free/Reduced lunch for the 2022-2023 school year. Students MUST be approved for the CURRENT school year. Please check with your grade level counselor for your status.
