Gordon Central High School has been named a 2026 AP Honor School by State School Superintendent Richard Woods, earning recognition as both an AP Access & Support School and an AP Challenge School.
These honors recognize schools that provide students with rigorous Advanced Placement learning opportunities while supporting them as they work toward success in college level coursework. AP courses allow high school students to experience challenging academic content, and students who earn qualifying scores on AP exams may be eligible to receive college credit.
Gordon Central was recognized as an AP Access & Support School for expanding access to AP coursework and supporting student success on AP exams. The school was also named an AP Challenge School, which recognizes smaller schools that offer AP exams across English, math, science, and social studies.
Congratulations to Gordon Central High School’s students, teachers, counselors, and administrators for this outstanding recognition and for their continued commitment to academic excellence and college and career readiness.
