We learned this week that the state named Screven County High School on the AP Challenge School list for 2022 by the Georgia Department of Education.
The state agency released the lists Thursday naming 239 Advanced Placement (AP) Honor Schools from 88 LEAs.
The state named 2022 AP Honor Schools in eight categories, based on the results of 2021 AP courses and exams.
The College Board administers AP exams, which also administers the SAT. AP courses are one of several ways Georgia students can access college-level learning at the high school level; students who receive a 3, 4, or 5 on an AP exam may receive college credit. GaDOE began recognizing AP Honor Schools in 2008.
AP Challenge Schools – Schools with enrollments of 900 or fewer students. Tested students in English, math, science, and social studies.
“We are committed to expanding opportunities for Georgia students, including in advanced and accelerated coursework,” Superintendent Woods said. “I offer my sincere congratulations to each of this year’s AP Honor Schools, and thank each teacher, student, and school leader who worked hard to create strong AP opportunities in these Georgia schools.”
