Dear LISA 8th grade parents/guardians,

We are very happy to introduce to you our new high school graduation plan called "Honors Graduation Plan". This plan provides opportunities for our students who have already completed Algebra I, Geometry and Biology courses in middle school to start taking AP courses in 9th grade, to take currently up to 21 AP courses in high school (the number may increase in the future), an opportunity for early graduation, and to receive an AP Capstone diploma.

Please find the attached document about the program. We are looking forward to preparing your students for college.
