Wilmette, IL – College Board announced that Regina Dominican High School has been named to the 2025 Advanced Placement® Program (AP®) School Honor Roll, earning Platinum distinction for the third year in a row.. 

The AP School Honor Roll recognizes schools whose AP programs are delivering results for students while broadening participation. Schools can earn this recognition annually based on criteria that reflect a commitment to increasing college-going culture, providing opportunities for students to earn college credit, and maximizing college readiness.

Regina Dominican had 88% of seniors who took at least one AP Exam during high school, 75% of seniors scoring a 3 or higher on at least one AP Exam, and 55% of seniors who took five or more AP Exams!

“AP gives students opportunity to engage with college-level work, earn college credit and placement, and build professional career skills they can use no matter what path they choose after high school,” said Trevor Packer, head of the AP program. “Congratulations to this year’s AP School Honor Roll recipients for proving it’s possible to expand participation in these rigorous courses and still drive strong performance.”

This prestigious recognition reflects Regina Dominican’s ongoing commitment to academic excellence and college readiness, highlighting the school’s dedication to expanding access to Advanced Placement coursework while supporting students to succeed at the highest levels. Earning Platinum status places Regina Dominican among an elite group of schools nationwide and underscores the strength of its rigorous curriculum, outstanding faculty, and culture of high academic achievement.

College Board’s Advanced Placement® Program (AP®) enables students to pursue college-level studies—with the opportunity to earn college credit, advanced placement, or both—while still in high school. Through AP courses in 40 subjects, each culminating in a challenging exam, students learn to think critically, construct solid arguments, and see many sides of an issue—skills that prepare them for college and beyond.
