BHS EARNS BRONZE SPOT ON THE 2023 AP SCHOOL HONOR ROLL

Congratulations to Boardman High School which was named to the 2023 AP School Honor Roll! The AP School Honor Roll recognizes schools whose AP program is delivering results and broadening access for students. BHS earned Bronze recognition this year.

Schools can earn the Honor Roll recognition annually based on their ability to increase their school’s college-going culture, to provide opportunities for students to earn college credit, and maximize college readiness. 

Boardman High School had 41% of seniors who took at least one AP exam during high school, 27% of seniors scoring a three or higher on at least one AP exam, and  3% of seniors who took five or more AP exams!

Boardman now offers 13 AP classes with AP Statistics as the newest addition this school year.  Teachers are qualified and trained to teach these rigorous courses, and many of those teachers have multiple years experience presenting AP coursework.  

College Board’s Advanced Placement® Program (AP®) enables students to pursue college-level studies—with the opportunity to earn college credit, advanced placement, or both—while still in high school.

Through AP courses, each culminating in a challenging exam, students learn to think critically, construct solid arguments, and see many sides of an issue—skills that prepare them for college and beyond. Research indicates that students who score a 3 or higher on an AP Exam typically experience greater academic success in college and are more likely to earn a college degree than non-AP students.
