Our Academic Enrichment Program is an opportunity to enhance the educational experience for students with strong academic abilities.

College Credit Opportunities
Honors, AP, and dual credit courses are offered to meet the learning needs of students with strong academic ability. Pres Girls can obtain up to 48 hours towards their bachelor’s degree. Pres parents and graduates have the potential to save, on average, $23,472 at an in-state public university their freshman year or $46,368 at a private university.

Advanced Placement (AP)
Advanced Placement (AP) courses are offered in English, Biology, Computer Science, Spanish, Calculus and Human Geography. To earn college credit for an AP course, students must earn a qualifying score on the AP exam administered by the College Board. The qualifying score is determined by the college/university the student chooses to attend.

Dual Credit
Dual credit courses are high school courses taught by a Pres faculty member, within the regular school day. All dual credit courses are certified by Spalding University or Jefferson Community and Technical College. If a student passes the class with a C or higher, she earns college credit from Spalding for the course taken at Presentation. Dual credit courses are offered in English, US History, and Finite Mathematics.
