AP honors
The College Board recognizes exceptional achievement on the college-level advanced-placement examinations. Only about 13 percent of the more than 840,000 students who took the examinations were named AP Scholars.
The exams, which high school students take in May after completing challenging college-level courses, are graded on a 5-point scale, with 5 being the highest. Most of the nation's colleges and universities award credit, advanced placement, or both for grades of 3 or higher.
The following students from Finneytown High School qualified as AP Scholars with Distinction by earning an average grade of at least 3.5 on all exams taken, and grades of 3 or higher on five or more exams: Jason Gwinn and Abigail King.
Catherine Hair, Sarah Hayes, Kelly Markle and Catherine Wood qualified as AP Scholars with Honor by earning an average grade of at least 3.25 on all exams taken, and grades of 3 or higher on four or more exams.
Sarah Baker, Mary Crosset, Erik Elmendorf, Katie Gibson, Amy Miekley and Brice Tucker qualified as AP Scholars by completing 3 or more exams with grades of 3 or higher.
