undertake more challenging work at the advanced secondary level. While all honors courses taught at
Lowell are acceptable in meeting the A-F Course Requirement, not all are assigned extra points. The
following classes do not receive extra grade points: 9th/10th grade English Honors, Accelerated MathH,
Geometry Honors and Foreign Language 1H-4H.
AP Computer Science, Chemistry 1H-2H, and Physics 1H-2H are considered advanced level courses, and extra grade points are awarded regardless of the grade in which they are taken. |
