High school students in Forsyth County were among the top performers on the Advanced Placement (AP) exams in 2014, earning their schools a spot on the Georgia Department of Education (GDOE) 2015 AP Honor Schools list.

The 2015 AP Honor Schools are named in five categories based on the results of 2014 AP courses and exams, with AP Merit Schools the most prestigious category. Schools in this category have at least 20 percent of their student population taking AP exams, with at least half of all exams earning scores of 3 or higher.

Only 57 of Georgia’s 453 high schools earned AP Merit School distinction. Four of those spots went to high schools in Forsyth County, with only Forsyth Central High School not making the list.

AP courses and exams are administered in high school by the College Board, which also administers the SAT. Students who receive a 3, 4 or 5 on AP exams given at the end of their course may receive college credit.

Earning AP Merit distinction were the following Forsyth County high schools: Lambert, North Forsyth, South Forsyth and West Forsyth. In North Fulton, the list included Alpharetta, Cambridge, Centennial, Chattahoochee, Fulton Science Academy Charter, Johns Creek, Milton, Northview and Roswell. North Springs Charter High School in Sandy Springs also was named to this category.

All five Forsyth County high schools were also named to the AP Honors list in three other categories including:

AP STEM Schools – Schools with students testing in at least two AP math courses and two AP science courses (198 schools).

AP STEM Achievement Schools – Schools with students testing in at least two AP math courses and two AP science courses, with at least 40 percent of exams earning scores of 3 or higher (121 schools).

AP Humanities Schools – Schools with students testing in all of the following AP courses: at least one English/language arts course, two social science courses, one fine arts course and one world language course (113 schools).
