The results from the 2024 AP Exams are in, and several E. C. Glass and Heritage high school students’ high scores qualified them for prestigious honors.
AP Capstone Diploma
Three E. C. Glass students were awarded the AP Capstone Diploma by earning scores of 3 or higher (out of 5) on the AP Seminar and AP Research exams and four additional AP Exams of their choice.

Integral components of the AP Capstone Diploma program, AP Seminar and AP Research are project-based courses. In lieu of a single end-of-year assessment, they evaluate skills mastery throughout the year with essays, group projects, and presentations. Students are encouraged to create research projects based on topics of personal interest.

The College Board’s AP Program allows students to take challenging university-level courses while still in high school. A 3 or higher on an AP Exam can earn students college credit, advanced placement, or both, saving them time and money. Research shows AP students are more likely to enroll and remain in college, do well in classes, and earn their degrees on time.
