Of the 2,300 schools across the state of Georgia, Dade County High School is being included among the top 301 schools statewide being recognized for scholastic achievement.
Friday, State School Superintendent Richard Woods revealed the Georgia Department of Education’s Advanced Placement (AP) Honor Schools from 104 school districts for this year.
“Georgia’s 2025 AP Honor Schools exemplify our commitment to providing students with rigorous, high-quality educational opportunities that prepare them for success beyond high school,” said Superintendent Woods, via a news release.
“I commend these schools for their dedication to academic excellence and equipping students with the knowledge and skills they need to thrive in college, careers and life. I am delighted the number of AP Honor Schools and school districts has risen again this year – a continued testament to the commitment of Georgia public education to expand opportunities for all Georgia students,” said Woods.
Dade County High School was one of 48 schools distinguished as a AP Challenge School, identified as schools with enrollments of 900 or fewer students and exams administered in English, Math, Science and Social Studies and a minimum of 25 total exams administered.
