Maggie L. Walker Governor’s School has again been named to the 2024 AP School Honor Roll! The AP School Honor Roll recognizes schools whose AP programs are delivering results and broadening access for students.
Schools can earn the Honor Roll recognition annually based on criteria that reflect a commitment to increasing their school’s college-going culture, providing opportunities for students to earn college credit, and maximizing college readiness. The AP School Honor Roll offers four levels of distinction: Bronze, Silver, Gold, and Platinum.
Maggie L. Walker Governor’s School offered twenty-four Advanced Placement (AP) courses and 1,455 assessments were administered in 2023-2024 to 518 students with 94.4% achieving scores of 3 or higher.
The Maggie L. Walker Governor’s School for Government and International Studies (MLWGS) is an innovative public high school offering a comprehensive college preparatory program emphasizing government, international studies, science, mathematics, languages, and fine arts.
