AP Access and Support Schools – Schools with at least 30% of AP exams taken by students who identified as African American and/or Hispanic (minimum of 16 students) and 30% of all AP exams earning scores of 3 or higher. At least 25 exams must be administered.

AP STEM Achievement Schools – AP STEM schools (see above definition) with at least 50% of all AP STEM exams earning scores of 3 or higher.​

“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. The categories are AP Access and Support Schools, AP Challenge Schools, AP Expansion Schools, AP Humanities Schools, AP Humanities Achievement Schools, AP Schools of Distinction, AP STEM Schools, and AP STEM Achievement Schools

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.
