Peters Township High School has been named to the 2024 AP School Honor Roll as a Platinum member! PTHS earned this distinction by expanding the school's college culture by enabling 81% of the Class of 2025 to experience at least one AP course before graduating, assisting with college affordability with 63% of the Class of 2025 earning college credit with an AP Exam score of 3, and optimizing our students’ college readiness by creating opportunities for 30% of the senior class to take a total of 5 APs across their high school years, with at least one taken in 9th or 10th grade.

Research shows students who take AP courses and exams are more likely to attend college and graduate on time. The students who enter four-year colleges with credit from AP accelerate their path to graduation and build confidence for college success. And even for those who don’t earn college credit, AP coursework provides early exposure to college-level work and contributes to a college-going school culture.
