Did you know reducing vehicle idling saves fuel and money?\u00a0 First, car idling is when a vehicle is left running when it\u2019s not in motion which is very bad because it is polluting and can harms peoples\u2019 health even.\u00a0 Idling also causes damage to the car. People can stop these problems by limiting the amount of time they idle their cars and eventually learn to stop and help the Earth be a cleaner place.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n AP payments have gone digital!\u00a0 The Fall AP payment window is open through November 1st<\/sup> at 11:59pm for all students enrolled in a fall or yearlong AP course.\u00a0 If you begin your AP course in January you will pay in the spring.\u00a0 This year all AP exams are $101 each except for AP Seminar and Research exams which are $149 each.\u00a0 If you\u2019re taking 3 or more exams your 4th<\/sup> and all subsequent exams are $40 each.\u00a0 If you qualify for free or reduced lunch your exams are $15 each.\u00a0 If that is you, please contact jmmilligan2@ortn.edu<\/a> to verify your status and receive your code before registering.\u00a0 The link to pay can be found on Parent\/Student Square.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Oak Ridge High School has a brand new student exchange for the year 2025.
