State School Superintendent Richard Woods named 276 Advanced Placement (AP) Honor Schools from 99 school districts for 2024.
“I extend my heartfelt congratulations to the 2024 AP Honor Schools,” Superintendent Woods said. “I commend them for their hard work to build strong Advanced Placement programs and, as a result, provide high-quality opportunities for Georgia students. Additionally, I am thrilled that the number of AP Honor Schools and school districts continues to rise each year – a testament to the commitment of Georgia public education to expand opportunities for all Georgia students.”
The 2024 AP Honor Schools are named in eight categories based on the results of 2023 AP courses and exams. A list of categories is below, and a complete list of schools in each category is linked in the description.
