12 June 08: Congratulations on a great year, and I look forward to seeing your AP National Exam scores. Enjoy a restful summer, and your senior year! +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 23 June 2008: To all of the prospective AP U.S. History students, I welcome you to a challenging and (hopefully) interesting course. Be sure to read the summer assignment and complete the ACE Practice test on the first chapter of your textbook. The web address for the ACE Practice Test element of your summer assignment website is: http://www.college.hmco.com/history/us/kennedy/am_pageant/12e/students/ace/ index.html The summer assignment is also available under the "Handouts" section of this website's main page. REMEMBER: the summer assignment is NOT OPTIONAL! If you choose not to do it this summer, you will have to complete it once school begins - - which, since you will also be busy with other classes, will make it harder for you. September will come sooner than we expect. I look forward to meeting all of you in the new school year.
