Advanced Placement Human Geography (APHG) offers an opportunity for students to receive social studies graduation or elective credit in a challenging and rewarding academic environment. Focused on patterns across space, including services, agriculture, industry, population, migration, ethnicity, urban patterns, religion, language, culture, and political systems, APHG offers both a historical and contemporary analysis of the crucial patterns that shape our present as well as our future. With a broad scope and connections to multiple fields of study, APHG emphasizes elements of study that students have found applicable to their own lives. Upon completion of the class, students know that they have been challenged to keep pace with the material and to see the world in new terms, which comes with a tremendous sense of pride and accomplishment. There is no guarantee, but APHG offers students a uniquely viable opportunity to gain college credit while in high school and to grow and mature as young adults. Students who have seen high levels of success in their previous academic classes and who are serious about accepting new challenges should consider taking Advanced Placement Human Geography.
