Advanced Placement exams are known to be rigorous tests of student knowledge of material covered in corresponding AP courses. Students earning a qualifying score on these exams are often eligible for advanced placement in college either by giving a student credit for a core course or by allowing a student to enter a higher level of a core course. The College Board recognizes students who have demonstrated college-level achievement through Advanced Placement (AP) courses and exams with the AP Scholar Awards. Seven OLSH students were honored this spring:

Luke Saftner ‘19
