Rye City Schools Congratulates 17 National AP Scholars

Once again, high numbers of Rye High School students who took Advanced Placement Exams in 2012 have earned AP Scholar Awards as a result of the outstanding results they achieved.

These awards are presented each year by the College Board, to students who have demonstrated college-level achievement through AP courses and exams. Each of the four recognitions – National AP Scholar, AP Scholar with Honor, AP Scholar, and AP Scholar with Distinction – has a required minimum average score on AP Exams taken.

In all four categories, Rye High School’s AP students achieved average scores that surpass those listed in the criteria.    

Seventeen students earned the status of National AP Scholars with scores averaging 4.72. The status is presented to those who score at an average of at least four on all AP Exams taken, and scores of four or higher on eight or more of these exams.
