The document is beneficial for both new APUSH teachers and students. It aligns the AP U.S. History periods with the chapters in the American Pageant textbook (13th edition) and the AMSCO book. I always hand this out on the first/second day of classes, so that my students have an organizational tool to help with their textbook readings, assignments, study resources, etc.

This letter gives parents/guardians a little background info about the AP exam and provides a place for the teacher to give her determination on whether or not the student should take the exam (yes, no or maybe). This determination is based on assessing a student's exam/quiz history (Multiple Choice Qs, DBQs, SAQs, and LEQs) throughout the course. Parents are required to sign a section of the form and return it indicating whether or not their child will participate in the exam.
