Implementation of mock AP exams for all science, math, and English classes was introduced this year. Students attended these exams over the course of two blocks, with the goal of gauging the current knowledge of the students, as well as determining what topics need to be reinforced before AP exams at the end of the year.

These exams are the outcome of the application of the NMSI (National Math and Science Initiative) Readiness Program at Ocean Lakes, Cox, Kempsville, Landstown, and Princess Anne. This program aims to increase the amount of students taking and/or passing college level classes.
