GRAVES AP SCHOLARS – Graves County High School seniors (from left) Collin F, Laura S, and Adam C recently were honored as AP Scholars for their work last school year. Two 2009 GCHS graduates also were so designated: Ethan Bennett and Sirena Wurth. The College Board’s Advanced Placement Program provides students the opportunity to complete college-level courses while still in high school. More than 90 percent of America’s four-year colleges and universities accept such courses for post-secondary academic credit when students score 3 or higher on the 5-point scale of AP exams. AP Scholars are those students who complete three or more AP exams with grades of 3 or higher. Approximately 18 percent of the nearly 1.7 million students worldwide who took AP exams last year earned the AP Scholar Award.
