State School Superintendent has named Rome High School as an Advanced Placement Honor School.
Rome was named as an AP Humanities School with at least five exams administered in each of the following AP categories: one ELA course, two social studies courses, one fine arts course, and one world language course, and a minimum of 25 total exams administered.
Rome is also an AP Humanities Achievement School with at least 50% of all AP Humanities exams earning scores of 3 or higher.
Rome is also an AP STEM School with a minimum of five students testing in at least four AP STEM courses, AP Calculus AB, AP Calculus BC, AP Statistics, AP Biology, AP Chemistry, AP Environmental Science, AP Physics 1, AP Physics 2, AP Physics C, AP Computer Science A, AP Computer Science Principles, and a minimum of 25 exams administered.
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.
AP exams are administered by the College Board, which also administers the SAT. AP courses are one of several ways Georgia students can access college-level learning at the high school level; students who receive a 3, 4, or 5 on an AP exam may receive college credit. GaDOE began recognizing AP Honor Schools in 2008.
