Matthew Severance of Weymouth received the designation of "AP Scholar," which is given to students who achieved an average score of at least 3 on all AP Exams taken, and scores of 3 or higher on three or more of these exams.

"The excellence of these recent graduates speaks so loudly for itself, there is little I can add," said Principal Dr. Carmen Mariano. "I could not be more proud of them, their teachers, or our school. Collectively, these scholars earned a score of 3 or higher on almost 30 separate AP exams. That is spectacular! There is no limit to how high students can soar if they take off from AWHS!"
