No advisory period starting next week
“AP classes,” two words most high school students have heard of at least once in their career. Yet, the question still arises: “what are the pros and cons of these classes?” In this opinion article, Guest Contributor Sanjana Kalavakolanu delves into this question.

Starting this Monday, students will no longer be having an advisory period and must remain in their second-period classes.
However, amidst AP testing, there are still ways for students to still have the opportunity to review.
“I think there’s a mix of pros and cons,” biology teacher Chris Ham said. “Students that are still AP testing or making up school work can use the extra 2nd period time to work and students can still make a pass to go to a different teacher if they have academic questions for their teacher.”
Some students feel as if it takes away exam prep.
“Without advisory, I think it’ll definitely derail my study time for my APS because I generally use advisory to quickly review or cram,” junior Ria Parmar said. “It also means that I probably will have to compensate for it by putting in more time at home.”
