During the 2021-2022 school year, there were over 20,000 AP Drawing Portfolios submitted internationally to the College Board. Out of those, only 343 students earned PERFECT scores, meaning they earned every single point possible. 4 of those perfect scores were our incredible AP Drawing students! We are so proud of our four perfectly scored portfolios and the hard work that our students put into them. Congratulations to these four students and to Mr. Toth on a job well done!
