"Over the last decade, the Italian Language Foundation offered many workshops to Italian teachers and monetary rewards to AP students. Let’s hope that this kind of aid will continue to support the future AP Teachers so our upcoming AP students will have the same opportunities of the other language students."
Lucrezia Lindia, Past Chairperson of the Foreign Language Department of Eastchester High School,
AP Italian Exam Reader

"I chose to take Italian because it was a language that always struck me as beautiful and I have always wanted to learn it. Looking towards the future, learning different languages from around the world along with working on Italian up to the AP level will undoubtedly help me with my tentative college major, business."
Max N. - NJ Student

"As an Italian teacher at one of the premiere arts high schools in the country, AP Italian is a vital course in the pursuit of a well-rounded arts education. In the spring of 2019, students found out that AP Italian was not going to be offered the following school year. Thanks to the strong support of the Italian Language Foundation, not only was our AP Italian class restored, but our Level One offerings were expanded. We are proud to teach and share the language with our students.”
-Antonette Laricchia, Teacher of Italian at LaGuardia High School

""Being able to take AP Italian and enriching my knowledge of the language and culture has not only been beneficial now, but will assist me in my future. After studying classical voice for six years, having a background in Italian helps me to understand and connect with the text and style of the pieces I perform.”
Christine T., NJ Student

"I fought to introduce AP Italian to my school and I therefore intend to become the best AP Italian teacher possible so as to make my students' hard work and dedication worthwhile. I am truly grateful to the Italian Language Foundation for funding my participation in a College Board workshop as I would not have been able to attend without their support."
Professor Patti Grunther, M.A.
Teacher of Italian language and culture, Watchung Hills Regional HS Association of American Teachers of Italian Mid-Atlantic Regional Representative

"As a bilingual student, I have always valued language and its ability to connect various cultures, people, and ideas. AP Italian does not only teach me the grammar and structure that has been emphasized in previous language courses, but it teaches me about Italy as a whole and what the people and nation have to offer altogether.”
Kim B., NJ Student
