Thirty-one students at Cape Elizabeth High School have been named AP Scholars by the College Board in recognition of their exceptional achievement on the college-level AP Exams.

Only about 18 percent of the more than 1 million students who took AP Exams last May performed at a sufficiently high level to merit such recognition.

Students take AP Exams after completing challenging college-level courses at their high schools. The College Board recognizes several levels of achievement based on the number of full year courses and exams taken. At Cape Elizabeth High School, 10 students qualified for the AP Scholar with Distinction Award by earning an average grade of at least 3.5 on all AP Exams taken, and grades of 3 or higher on five or more of these exams. These students are Jonathan Cole, Mary Cox, Jessica Danielson, Clare Egan, Carlin Gayer, Joseph Geoghegan, Emma Hanson, Colman Hatton, Grace Needleman and Zachary Rioux.

Seven students qualified for the AP Scholar with Honor Award by earning an average grade of at least 3.25 on all AP Exams taken, and grades of 3 or higher on four or more of these exams. These students are Sarah Cooper, Jeremy Falk, Heather Furman, Benjamin Pomeroy, Liam Sullivan, Dustin Turin and Olivia Weill.

Fourteen students qualified for the AP Scholar Award by completing three or more AP Exams with grades of 3 or higher. These students are Joseph Goodglass, Katherine Graves, Daley Gruen, Blake Kast, Samuel LoBosco, Kevin Martin, Dana Riker, Daniel Shedd, Caitlin Smith, Clare Stack, Adam Stephanus, Gina Stevensen, Jeffrey Witherell and Katherine Yosua.
