HB 1508: Uniform AP Credit Policy for Missouri Students

This week, students in AP Government worked collaboratively to craft a letter to send out to high schools across the state of Missouri. We need students, parents, teachers, and administrators across the state to contact their state legislators and help us pass HB 1508, ensuring college credit for students who have earned it by scoring a 3 or above on their AP exams. This letter will be sent out shortly soliciting the support of schools throughout the state. Together, we can get this legislation passed and save Missouri students and families millions of dollars.

On Thursday, two officials from the College Board joined Liberty North students to talk about our efforts to pass HB 1508. Julie Harris-Lawrence, Senior Director for Teacher Outreach, and Kevin McHenry, Government Relations Director, shared with us information on the legislative process, lobbying, and recent efforts in other states to pass similar uniform AP credit policies. We appreciate the help and support that the College Board is providing our initiative!
