Chamblee, Cross Keys Earn Advanced Placement Honors

The two schools earned honors for testing and participation among minorities.


The Georgia Department of Education has announced the 2013 Advanced Placement (AP) Honors Schools, and our communities’ two high schools made the list.

Chamblee Charter High School was named as merit school, meaning at least 20 percent of its student population took the AP exam and at least 50 percent of those exams scoring three (3) or higher.

Chamblee and Cross Keys High School both had at least 30 percent of their exams taken by African American and/or Hispanic students, and 30 percent of those earning a score of three (3) or higher.
