Plainview-Old Bethpage John F. Kennedy High School (POBJFKHS) has earned top marks, receiving the prestigious Platinum with Access Distinction in the 2024 AP Honor Roll by the College Board. This recognition celebrates the high school’s commitment to promoting equitable access to Advanced Placement (AP) courses, fostering college readiness, and encouraging student participation in rigorous academic programs. It is the highest honor awarded by the organization.

The AP School Honor Roll acknowledges high schools across the nation for expanding access to AP courses while maintaining strong academic performance. POBJFKHS is one of only 17 schools on Long Island to earn the Platinum honor for 2024. Additionally, POBJFKHS received the AP Access Award, a special recognition granted to just 57 schools on Long Island for their effective strategies in providing AP opportunities to underrepresented student populations.

“At POBJFKHS, we celebrate the cooperative efforts of our students and faculty to ensure that all students have access to high-quality curriculum and instruction,” said Principal Dr. Heather Dvorak. “This recognition from the College Board reaffirms our efforts to prepare students for college readiness and success long after they graduate.”
