Plan for Academic Success
Lassiter High School is serious about academics. We expect our students to do their best to excel. Our teachers are serious about teaching, and our students are serious about learning. This page is full of tips and resources to help you accomplish your lofty goals. Please visit it often so that you are always aware of important test dates as well as what resources are available to assist you in achieving your ambitions.
Academic Support and Enrichment (ASE)
The Academic Support and Enrichment (ASE) program has been created to provide students additional assistance for their coursework and high-stakes standardized testing. As an aid to support student success, we meet three times a week for thirty minutes during the school year.
Enrichment opportunities such as Leadership, Math Team, Model UN, Academic Bowl, Peer Helpers, SAT Prep, college application process, Yearbook, and Newspaper are also available.
Georgia Milestone Assessments (EOC)
All students will take the Georgia Milestones EOC after completing courses in Coordinate Algebra, Analytic Geometry, US History, Economics, Biology, Physical Science, 9th Grade Literature and Composition, and American Literature and Composition. Results of the EOC are used for diagnostic, remedial, and accountability purposes to gauge the quality of education in the state and also count as part of the student's final grade in the course. The EOC counts as 0.01% of the final grade.
Please visit the Georgia Department of Education website for the study guides in each discipline of the EOC series of tests.
Advanced Placement Program
Advanced Placement courses are college level courses taught in high schools throughout the country. The College Board establishes curriculum content, and students have the opportunity to take a year-end exam which may qualify them for college credit. Lassiter High School offers advanced placement courses in the areas of fine arts, English, mathematics, science, career/technology, foreign language, and social studies.
We will post Advanced Placement (AP) test scores online only. Students may set up a College Board account to view their test scores in mid July. (If students have taken the SAT and have a College Board account, the new account is not necessary.) Students should keep their student identifier number as well as their email address when bubbling demographic information for the AP tests. To retrieve scores in July, use the following information:
- Student identifier number
- Email address
- AP number
For more information regarding the AP Program, please contact Kelli Price, LHS AP Coordinator, and visit our blog by clicking on the link at the side of this page.
