Thirty students at Buena High School were named AP Scholars by the College Board in recognition of exceptional achievement on the college-level Advanced Placement Examinations. Five of the


students qualified for the AP Scholar with Distinction Award by earning grades of 3 or above on five or more AP exams, with an average exam grade of at least 3.5. The Distinction Award


recipients are: Sean Askay, Devon Bleak, Alice Hsu, John Liu and Parveen Parmar. The advanced placement tests, which students take in May after completing college-level courses at their high


schools, are graded on a 5-point scale. Most of the nation’s colleges and universities award credit and/or placement for grades of 3 or higher, and more than 1,300 institutions award a year


of credit (sophomore standing) to students with a sufficient number of qualifying grades. The College Board is a national nonprofit association that champions educational excellence through


an ongoing collaboration of nearly 2,900 member schools, colleges, universities and organizations. MORE TO READ
