Brookwood School Named to Advanced Placement School Honor Roll
College Board announced that Brookwood School has been named to the 2024 Advanced Placement® Program (AP®) School Honor Roll, earning gold distinction.
The AP School Honor Roll recognizes schools whose AP programs are delivering results for students while
broadening access. Schools can earn this recognition annually based on criteria that reflect a commitment to increasing college-going culture, providing opportunities for students to earn college credit, and maximizing college readiness.
Brookwood had 78% of seniors who took at least one AP Exam during high school, 56% of seniors scoring a 3 or higher on at least one AP Exam, and 27% of seniors who took five or more AP Exams.
Brookwood School offers 16 Advanced Placement courses across 19 sections, taught by 10 dedicated faculty members. This robust program provides students with the opportunity to engage in college-level coursework across a variety of disciplines.
“We are incredibly proud of our students and faculty for their dedication to academic excellence,” said Upper School Director Bill Cook. “This recognition affirms our commitment to providing rigorous learning
opportunities while ensuring that every student has the support they need to succeed at the highest levels."
“AP gives students opportunity to engage with college-level work, to earn college credit and placement, and to potentially boost their grade point averages,” said Trevor Packer, head of the AP program. “The schools that have earned this distinction are proof that it is possible to expand access to these college-level courses and still drive strong performance – they represent the best of AP.”
College Board’s Advanced Placement® Program (AP®) enables students to pursue college-level studies—with the opportunity to earn college credit, advanced placement, or both—while still in high school. Through AP courses in 38 subjects, each culminating in a challenging exam, students learn to think critically, construct solid arguments, and see many sides of an issue—skills that prepare them for college and beyond.
