Accelerated students will do very well, Chesapeake offers at least 15 Adavanced Placement courses and numerous electives in each department. Students will do well if their parents are very active in their education.

About the tests


In 2011-2012 Maryland used the Maryland High School Assessments (HSA) to test students in English 2, Algebra, and Biology upon completion of each course. The HSA is a standards-based test, which means it measures how well students are mastering specific skills defined for each grade by the state of Maryland. Beginning with the class of 2009, students are required to pass the tests in order to graduate. The goal is for all students to pass the tests.
