54 Floyd students are AP Scholars

♦ Of the 54 students from the four Floyd County high schools to earn AP Scholar Awards, 28 were sophomores or juniors at the time of testing last school year.

Floyd County Schools had 54 students earn AP Scholar Awards for their performance on AP exams last school year, according to a roster released by the College Board.

Only 22 percent of the 2.2 million students worldwide who took AP exams performed at a level high enough to earn an AP Scholar Award. Students can earn college credit, advanced placement, or both for successful performance on the AP exams while in high school.

The average overall score for the school system was 3.14 on a five-point scale. Armuchee High had an average score of 3.29, Pepperell High had an average score of 3.13, Model High had an average score of 3.02 and Coosa High had an average score of 2.88.

Of this year’s award recipients for Floyd County Schools, 28 were sophomores or juniors at the time of testing. These students have at least one more year in which to complete college-level work and possibly earn a higher-level AP Scholar Award.
