JCHS Academic Planning Guide_2020-2021

Jefferson City Academic Center (JCAC)
If a student is interested in attending JCAC, they must contact their counselor or administrator for a
recommendation from the building that they are currently attending. For inquiries call JCAC at 573-659-2510.
JCAC School hours are from 7:30-4:00.
Advanced Placement (AP) Testing
Students enrolled in AP courses have the option to take the AP examination for which the course has prepared
them. Students must reserve their seat for the exams they wish to take in May. Registration typically begins in
December and is an online registration process located on the JCHS Counseling web page under AP testing.
Total Registration is the third party used for collection of fees and ordering of tests. Please note there is a $7.00
administration fee on top of the cost of the exam(s). The cost for the test is approximately $97.00 per subject
examination. Each college or university determines which of these examination scores they will accept. It is
important for students to have accurate information from the college they plan to attend regarding the
acceptance of AP credit (http://www.collegeboard.com/ap/creditpolicy) See AP flyer, or contact Carrie Welch
in the counseling office.
Library Media Center
The Jefferson City Library Media Center provides students with resources for print and electronic leisure
reading, print and database materials for formal and informal research, technology access and training, test
preparation materials and tutoring for college- and career- entrance exams, and study space for individuals
and small groups. Our two certified library media specialists work with students and teachers to ensure that
students receive the assistance and materials they need to be successful at JCHS and beyond. For more
