The College Board recently notified De La Salle that the school has earned Advanced Placement (AP) Honor Roll status for the 2023-2024 school year. 

The AP School Honor Roll recognizes schools that have done outstanding work to welcome more students into AP courses. 

Assistant Principal Christopher Dean, ‘89, said, “This recognition is further evidence of the achievements of our AP students. The College Board also noted that we achieved a ‘Platinum’ designation in the number of students taking 5 or more AP courses during their DLS careers. 

In May 2024, 169 students took 345 AP Exams. 

Dean added, “This demonstrates a learning atmosphere where students are encouraged to challenge themselves academically through the most rigorous courses we have available. It also speaks to the relationships that our teachers form with students across the board, not just in AP, based on trust, in an effort to perform at their highest level possible.”  

The College Board also recognized DLS for the number of students in the graduating class (2024) who scored a 3 or higher on any AP exam taken during high school. 

DLS offers a robust Advanced Placement curriculum including the following courses for the 2024-2025 school year.
