Fifty-three students earned the highest score of five on their AP tests, making a total of 77 fives at MCHS. 745 total AP tests were taken with 515 passing scores of a three or higher, an over 69% passing rate. This potentially amounts to over $664,000 in savings for families on college tuition. Signs were delivered to students who earned a five on Thursday. Great job to all of our students!
