Whitewater High School announces AP scholars

In May, 61 students took 114 Advanced Placement tests at Whitewater High School. Students scoring a 3, 4 or 5 on each test are eligible to receive college credit for the corresponding course. This year, 75.4 percent of the students who took a test scored a 3 or above, nearly a 10 point increase over last year’s results, and well above the Wisconsin average of 69.1.
