Have you seen the signs? Several yard signs are popping up in some Goshen High School students' yards after 18 students earned a perfect 5 on their Advanced Placement exams. The scores were just released and 28 AP exams received score of a 5 during the 2022-23 school year. Students who earned these top scores -- some on multiple tests -- were honored with a surprise visit from the GHS staff who delivered an #APWarriorUp to celebrate their success. Overall, GHS had 137 passing scores of a 3, 4, or 5 on AP Exams. Scores of 3 or above on AP exams often counts as college credit in the tested subject.
