OLSH students may begin taking AP courses in their sophomore year. Similar to college courses, AP courses are taught at a faster pace, and there is a vast amount of material presented. There is a high degree of self-learning, and often students are expected to work independently outside of class, learning important skills to take with them into college. The OLSH AP Advantage Program affords OLSH students distinct opportunities to take AP courses through a relationship with one of America's finest universities - the University of Notre Dame.
