Have her check the required courses and get those out of the way early (such as Fin Ed). This way, her schedule will be freed up in the higher grades when Honors and AP Classes are offered.
If anything, if she has strong interests/talents in some areas (let say, history, arts, music), then check if the school has certain entry requirement to qualify for AP classes in those subjects (e.g., needing a regular music theory class, before allowed AP Music Theory).
Again, always assuming SHE is interested, then taking those pre-requisites early might allow her into the AP class earlier, again giving her more choices/scheduling flexibility for the other, more challenging “core subject” AP classes in Junior/Senior year.
