Toombs County High School has once again demonstrated its commitment to academic excellence by earning the prestigious 2025 AP Honor School – Challenge School designation. This recognition, awarded by the Georgia Department of Education (GaDOE), highlights schools with enrollments of 900 or fewer students that have successfully administered at least 25 Advanced Placement (AP) exams in English, math, science, and social studies.
The honor reflects the hard work and dedication of Toombs County High School’s educators and students, who continue to embrace the challenges of advanced coursework. AP courses provide students with college-level academic experiences, and those who earn a score of 3, 4, or 5 on their AP exams may receive college credit, giving them a head start on their postsecondary education.
State School Superintendent Richard Woods commended this year’s 301 AP Honor Schools from across 104 districts, emphasizing their role in preparing students for success in college and careers. “Georgia's 2025 AP Honor Schools exemplify our commitment to providing students with rigorous, high-quality educational opportunities that prepare them for success beyond high school,” Woods stated.
At Toombs County High School, this recognition demonstrates the school’s ongoing efforts to expand learning opportunities and challenge students to reach their highest potential. Superintendent Barry Waller praised the achievement, stating, “This recognition is a testament to the dedication of our teachers and staff. Their commitment to academic excellence ensures that our students are well-prepared for the future.”
The Toombs County School District remains committed to supporting AP programs and enhancing advanced learning opportunities for students. This accomplishment is a reflection of the hard work put in by both educators and students, and the district looks forward to continuing this tradition of academic success.
