Nineteen Sanford students and alumni have earned the designation of AP Scholar by the College Board in recognition of their exceptional achievement on college level Advanced Placement Program (AP) Exams. Students take AP Exams in May of each year, after completing college–level courses at Sanford School.

Cindy Duan ’11, a Princeton University student who set a Delaware record last year in first singles’ tennis, was named a National AP Scholar, receiving an average score of at least 4 on all AP Exams taken, and scores of 4 or higher on eight more exams. (Cindy also qualified for the AP Scholar with Distinction Award which is described in the next paragraph.)

Four students qualified for the AP Scholar with Distinction Award by earning an average score of at least 3.5 on all AP Exams taken and grades of 3 or higher on five or more exams. The students are: Jasmine Caulfield ’11, Cindy Duan ’11, Josiah Hannon ’11, and Hannah Wagner ’11.

Seven students qualified for the AP Scholar with Honor Award by earning an average score of at least 3.25 on all AP Exams taken, and scores of 3 or higher on four or more exams. The students are:Stephanie Cramer ’11, Charles Frick ’12, Katherine Grant ’11, Joshua Katz ’12, Thaddeus Potter ’11, Emily Simonton ’11, and Chenyi Yang ’12.

Eight students qualified for the AP Scholar Award by receiving scores of 3 or higher on three or more AP Exams. The AP Scholars are: Zhengyi Chen ’12, Ocean Gibson ’12, Phoebe Hering ’12, Jacqueline Kalil ’11, Nataliya Prokhnesvska ’12, Peter Walpole ’11, Ishani Winston ’11, and Madelyn Wojnisz ’12.

The College Board’s Advanced Placement Program offers students the opportunity to take challenging college–level courses while still in high school, and to receive college credit, advanced placement, or both for successful performance on the AP Exams. About 18 percent of the 1.7 million students worldwide who took AP Exams performed at a sufficiently high level also earn an AP Scholar Award.
