The Issaquah School District announced Monday it had made the College Board’s “honor roll” for Advanced Placement-friendly school districts.

The College Board — the private nonprofit that administers the SAT, PSAT and Advanced Placement exams — recognized school districts that had expanded access to AP programs while maintaining or improving the percentage of students whom scored a 3 or higher on each AP test.

Additionally, school districts were called upon to maintain or increase the percentage of exams taken by black, Latino, American Indian and Alaska Native students.

“Reaching these goals indicates that a district is successfully identifying motivated, academically prepared students who are ready for the opportunity of AP,” district spokesperson L. Michelle wrote in the announcement.

AP coursework is intended to offer high school students college-level curricula with the potential to be applied as credit when they enroll in colleges or universities. Student proficiency is measured by an exam administered by College Board at the end of the year.

This was the sixth year College Board released its AP District Honor Roll and the fifth consecutive year Issaquah School District made the list.

Issaquah was one of 10 Washington state school districts to make the list. Other districts were Aberdeen School District, Archdiocese of Seattle Education Office, Battle Ground Public School, Eatonville School District, Lake Washington School District, Marysville School District, Riverview School District, Snoqualmie Valley School District and Spokane Public Schools.
