Due to the ongoing construction at Clarke Central High School this year, the Advanced Placement exams will be given at an alternative site.
Due to construction, Advanced Placement tests will be administered for Clarke Central High School students at the 440 Dearing Extension at the Athens Community Career Academy.
There will be no transportation available through the CCSD to get to the testing site. However, there is an Athens Transit Bus Stop located near the ACCA.
“It’s a lot more of a hassle to get kids over there when they might not have easy transportation for the afternoon tests,” sophomore Grace Mauldin said.
Social studies department teacher Stephen Hinson says AP Tests have not always been hold at CCHS and were instead given at the Clarke County School District Board of Education.
“I always thought it was an odd place to give a test. It was inconvenient for people who did not live near the district office. The Career Academy is a much more central location,” Hinson said.
