Hamden High Recognized for AP Achievement

Hamden High School is happy to announce that we have been named to the 2025 AP School Honor Roll. This recognition celebrates schools whose Advanced Placement (AP) programs are delivering strong results while expanding access and participation for students.

Schools earn AP School Honor Roll recognition annually based on criteria that reflect a commitment to fostering a strong college-going culture, increasing opportunities for students to earn college credit, and promoting college readiness. The AP School Honor Roll includes four levels of distinction: Bronze, Silver, Gold, and Platinum.

During high school, 47% of Hamden High School seniors took at least one AP exam, 35.2% earned a score of three or higher on at least one AP exam, and 16% completed five or more AP exams. Hamden High School currently offers 22 AP courses, taught by 22 AP-certified teachers, ensuring students have access to a broad and rigorous academic program.

“Being named to the 2025 AP School Honor Roll is a tremendous accomplishment for Hamden High School and a testament to the hard work of our students, teachers, and support staff. This recognition reflects our commitment to expanding access to rigorous coursework while ensuring students are supported to succeed.” - Eric Jackson, Principal.
