AP courses are university-level courses offered in high school and reflect what is taught in introductory university courses.  Students taking an AP course will cover and be evaluated on the Ontario curriculum.  The additional layer of AP material will foster a rigorous, high paced environment tailored to engage our high achieving and critical thinking student population.  

The following AP courses are offered at Milton District High School in 2026/27:

Grade 11 & 12 Courses

• AP Biology
• AP Calculus AB
• AP Chemistry
• AP English: Language and Composition, and Literature and Composition
• AP Human Geography
• AP Physics I and II
• AP World History

Grade 9 & 10 AP Prep Courses

• AP Prep English
• AP Prep French
• AP Prep Geography (grade 9)
• AP Prep History (Grade 10)
• AP Prep Math
• AP Prep Science

Future Expansion (2027–28)

• AP French Language & Culture
• AP Business

At the end of the AP course, students may take the AP exam — a standardized exam delivered in May that measures how well students have mastered the university-level course work. Students who score 4 or 5 on the exam may receive credit, advanced placement, or both at most universities in Canada and the United States.
