SENATE RESOLUTION

     MADAM PRESIDENT:

    I offer the following resolution and move its adoption:

    A SENATE RESOLUTION recognizing Crawford County High School for participating in the Advanced Placement Training and Incentive Program in Indiana.

    Whereas, Crawford County High School has sought to expand Advanced Placement courses in its curriculum to provide students an opportunity to receive college credits at a greatly reduced cost compared to traditional university course enrollment;

    Whereas, Crawford County High School will join the Second Cohort of Indiana schools participating in the Advanced Placement Training and Incentive Program (AP- TIP IN), which includes eleven additional Indiana high schools;                            

    Whereas, The AP-TIP IN is dedicated to providing educators with the necessary tools to help students reach high levels of academic and personal achievement;

    Whereas, The AP-TIP IN has partnered with the National Math and Science Initiative to provide $7 million to be used to train educators and provide necessary additional tutoring

to students;

    Whereas, The first cohort of participating schools included nine high schools from across the state; and

    Whereas, These schools have already demonstrated improvements in students' Advanced Placement Exam scores, which reflect a level of college-readiness worthy enough to earn college credits prior to matriculation in a post- secondary program: Therefore,

Be it resolved by the Senate of the

General Assembly of the State of Indiana:

    SECTION 1. The Indiana Senate recognizes Crawford County High School for participating in the Advanced Placement and Incentive Program in Indiana.
    SECTION 2. That the Secretary of the Senate is hereby directed to transmit a copy of this resolution to Karen Sheller, Crawford County Hi gh School Principal.
