We would like to congratulate the 108 Kenston High School students who have earned the designation of AP Scholar by the College Board in recognition of their achievement on the college-level Advanced Placement Program exams.
The College Board’s Advanced Placement Program offers students the opportunity to take challenging college-level courses while still in high school. In addition, they can receive college credit, advanced placement or both for successful performance on the AP exams. About 18% percent of the more than 1.6 million high school students took AP exams and performed at a sufficiently high level to merit the recognition of AP Scholar.
The AP Capstone Diploma is granted to students who earn scores of 3 or higher in AP Seminar and AP Research and on four (4) additional AP exams. Earning this honor were: Dominic Alandt, Rowan Collier, Joseph Drsek, Alexandra Ensign, Leah Jarmolowicz, Nya Ku, Elena Lioudis, Ronja Markoff, Kaitlyn McFadden, Zachary Pijor, Connor Seely, Allyson Vickers and Madeline Worsdall.
Rising seniors Valerie Brown and Aubrey Marthe were granted the AP Seminar & Research Certificate for scoring a 3 or higher in both AP Seminar and AP Research.
Forty-three students qualified for the AP Scholar with Distinction Award by earning an average grade of at least 3.5 on all AP exams taken and grades of three (3) or higher on five or more of the exams.
