Career Path and Advanced Placement Testing Support

 

The Nashville – Berrien Rotary Club, Rotary District 6920, and The Rotary Foundation provided $1501.00 to pay the costs of Advance Placement (AP) tests for 10 Berrien County High School students of need and Career Path (CP) tests for 7 Berrien Academy Students. All students were unable to cover these test costs of the tests at Berrien County High School and Berrien Academy (Nashville, Georgia). The Berrien Academy received $541 to cover the costs of 7 AP Literature Tests. Berrien County High School received $960. These funds covered the tests costs for 3 AP Macro Economics and 7 AP US History, 3 AP tests. The Club provided the High School and Berrien Academy checks totaling $1,501.00 on April 29, 2022 for tests that were administered in April/May 2022.  Most specifically, the District Grant (DG) of $820.00 provided sufficient funds to cover the cost of 9 Advanced Placement tests. The Nashville-Berrien Rotary Club contributed $681.00, which covered the remaining 8 tests, adding-up to the overall $1,501.00 cost of the project.

 

This project directly benefited the Nashville – Berrien Community by assisting with ensuring that no talented, motivated student of need in our community will delay or cancel their educational AP or CP examinations because of insufficient person funding. This project directly contributes to the work-ready workforce and economic development by assisting students of need with obtaining work-related credentials and college course credits. The 17 students and their parents directly benefited from this project.

 

The Club members worked with School Officials to arrange grant, set rules and coordinate activities. Also, Club members organized a Golf Tournament and a Fun Run to raise funds to provide the Club’s $681 contribution to this project.
