Southern Door High School will become one of four in northeast Wisconsin schools and one of 1,800 in the entire country to offer an AP Capstone Diploma program next fall. The program will focus on college-level research, collaboration, and presentation skills necessary for continuing education and future careers. Students that receive a score of three or higher in the two AP courses will receive a certificate. AP Seminar will culminate with a test while AP Research ends with a year-end paper, presentation, and defense. Southern Door principal Steve Bousley calls it a tremendous opportunity for students to get a taste of college in high school.
Students can start requesting to be in the Fall 2021 course later this year. This represents one of the several AP-level courses available to Southern Door students, many of which offer the opportunity to earn college credit.
